Item Description
Rhodochrosite specimens are very uncommon from this well-known Montana district. Intergrown, sparkly, translucent, pastel-pink rhombs totally cover the face of this sculptural, very showy and excellent large specimen. The piece probably dates to the 1950s or 60s, but no proof. Rare in this size and quality. Ex Vernon & Zona Braun and Bob Trimingham Collections. valued $1000
