Description:Rhodonite is not seen in gem quality material from many localities. The Japanese Rhodonite is famous for cutting some of the best and biggest stones in the world. Recently there has been a influx of new gem quality Brazilian Rhodonite on the market, and this gem was cut a few months ago from a broken crystal. Rhodonite is one of the most beautiful pink colors in the gem world, and is notorious for being one of the most difficult gems to cut due to the fragility of the material and perfect cleavage. This stone has a vibrant pink color, and is very slightly included with an "Oval" cut. A great (and colorful) rarity from one of the most significant gem producing countries in the world. Valued at $184.50.
