Item Description

Rhodochrosite is RARE from the newest N'Chwaning mine, which became fully operational in 2006. This rich and showy small cabinet is from a limited 2015 find. Sparkly, nubby, pretty pastel-pink balls of tiny rhodo rhombs fully line the undulating sculptural matrix. This is a rare, rich, excellent and typical habit of rhodochrosite from the N'Chwaning III Mine. Very seldom on the market.
