Gorgeous, very gemmy, deep cherry-red, rhodochrosite scalenohedrons are richly and nicely set on contrasting, massive manganite matrix on this showy specimen from the famous N'Chwaning II Mine. These are some large, extremely gemmy and intensely color-saturated rhodos on this striking piece and are highly representative of the species and locality.
