Item Description

Rich cherry red color and high lustre on two faces of this subhedral rhodonite crystal from this well-known locale. The striations on the faces of the translucent specmen add real pizzazz to this classic specimen. It has edge wear all-around, but this remains a very showy and highly representative example of the species with two complete faces. These rhodonites came out in the mid-2000s, with few since. Ex Luiz Menezes dealer stock.
