Item Description

An adorable and sculptural, "cat's ears" pair of rhodochrosite scalenohedrons from the renowned 1970s finds. The lustrous, gemmy, pretty rose-red crystals have a very nifty partial overcoat of sugary drusy quartz on the striated crystals. Pristine. Valued by the former dealer at $595.
