Rhodochrosite cab ~
Offered here is a large collector's cabochon of rhodochrosite, from Argentina, with PLUMES! At one side, this outstanding stone features wavy bands of glowing pink coloration. And the other side has honey-colored gel (calcite), very gemmy & translucent, which contains several beautifully ornate plumes with ghostly fortifications. Separating the two zones is a scalloped band of cream, with fancy little figures that resemble buds. A few tiny pinpoint voids and thin veils are all that keep it from total perfection, though they're tough to find and are easy to forgive in a cab so unique. It's truly a KEEPER! This stone has a designer freeform shape, with a well rounded dome of 6+mm. Polished to a lustrous brilliance both front and back.
Size: 59x20mm
Weight: approximately 72 carats
