Rhodochrosite Cabochon Gemstone
A fine-grade rhodochrosite gemstone, cut from stone mined in Argentina.
This highly polished cabochon has a subtle pinkish-red colour, with distinctive markings formed by the crystallisation within the mineral.
This gemstone is being offered at a reduced price because two of the corners have very minor imperfections on the base of the stone. They can be felt but are only visible when the stone is viewed with a loupe.
We sometimes get the opportunity to buy gemstones from our supplier that have been reduced due to minor imperfections. They're often heavily discounted, which enables us to pass that saving on.
Rhodochrosite is a soft, fragile stone, so it can be challenging to cut and polish.
If you're looking for a premium-grade gemstone to mount in jewellery, or just for your collection, and are not put off by a minor imperfection, this rhodochrosite will not disappoint.
