Description
~ Rhodochrosite cab ~

Offered here is a collector's cabochon of rhodochrosite, from Argentina, with PLUMES! Half of this extraordinary stone features glowing pink coloration that's simply delicious! It has a lovely showing of wavy banding, and a small patch of dark silvery metal. The other half is a honey-colored gel (calcite), very gemmy & translucent, which contains several beautifully ornate plumes with ghostly fortifications. This stone has a designer teardrop shape, with a generously high rounded dome of 7.5mm. Polished to a lustrous brilliance both front and back.

Weight: approximately 80 carats
