Item Description

Vivid pink-red, lustrous, translucent rhodonite blades form an adorable and aesthetic small cabinet from the older 1991 finds at this small mine. The bladed "sail" is a remarable feature to the cutie. Mining ceased in 2008, when the rhodonite-bearing vein pinched out. There will be no more of these beautiful and exquisite rhodonites from this locale. Get a good one, when you can. The blades are pristine. Valued $750-1000. Specimens of this caliber, with luster and distinct crystals, are almost unheard of on the market anymore!
