Description
- These Rhodochrosite beads are priced and sold by the pair.
- We will do our best to pick well matched pairs, but because these are natural materials expect slight variations that enhance their uniqueness.
- Short Rhodochrosite cylinders with very slightly domed ends 16x10mm (for a smaller size see JSD-1389)
- The gem's name comes from the Greek for it's rosy color, but some of the best specimens from South America have been called Inca Rose.
- Rhodochrosite often forms around near hydrothermal activity, where superheated water circulates through veins in the rocks. Examples include the Sweet Home Mine in Colorado, Capillitas in Argentina and the N'Chwanig mines in South Africa.
- Robert Simmons recommends placing Rhodochrosite over the heart during meditation or sleep to cleanse, soothe and heal the energy field around the heart for emotional healing.
- From the collection of Joyce Diamanti, bead researcher, writer and educator.
