2.7 x 2.3 x 2.0 cm (largest). A fine two-piece, contrasting rhodochrosite set from Taxco, Mexico and the Sam Nasser Thumbnail Collection. One piece has bright pastel-pink bladed aggregates nicely complimented by quartz points, while the other, starkly different piece, consists of tannish-pink, fan-like sprays of elongated rhodochrosite crystals on a bit of quartz.
