Rhodochrosite (Ref: 149)

Here we see a superfine specimen with numerous intense red, partially doubly terminated crystals of Rhodochrosite from Sta. Eulalia. This is a classic of Mexico, these old Rhodochrosites are seldom seen for sale, let alone in such relatively large and aesthetic specimens. This small cabinet piece has a good horizon, showing elongated scalenohedral crystals with rhombic termination modifications, to 1 cm. This exceptional piece is absolutely perfect. Just at the very periphery there are tiny almost invisible contacts and absolutely not worth to report. For the size and rare locality, I could accept small damage on such a piece but it definitely hasn´t. A great Mexican Rhodo in splendend condition
