Item Description

Argentina has provided a tremendous amount of stalagtitic Rhodochrosite with a beautiful pink color banding, but rarely is the material gemmy enough for faceting as most of it is either slabbed or cabbed. With that said, this is a beautiful polished slice of Rhodo from Argentina and rather gemmy when backlit as you can see in the photo. My favorite aspect of the piece is the fact that the outer "rind" makes this piece look like a slice of watermelon, and is a great novelty piece. An amazingly unique and attractive piece to add to your collection. Priced at $350.20 retail.
