This unique shaped cabochon Rhodochrosite has gorgeous color and patterns. Rhodochrosite (whose name means rose-colored) often forms pink and white bands.  The pink color of rhodochrosite is caused by the element manganese and it is formed when manganese is dissolved by ground water and combines with a carbonate material and then drips off the ceiling of caves and crevices deep underground. It is found in Argentina, Peru, Colorado and Montana, U.S, and Quebec, Canada.  Ihave it wrapped in sterling silver wire.
