  Notes:

  This can be a cutter or a specimen for those that really want rare material. This one came from Hilmar Bosch's private collection. I used to be very good friends with his family and I already had 4 of these crystals and when I spoke with him about mine; he said he would sell me one of his and he did. I was in shock when I looked up these crystals on the mineral sites as they want well over a grand for something like this; but most they have are already sold, but I just can not bring myself to ask such prices.. I have cut over 12 rhodochrosite gems in my life and they all brought very good money and sold as fast as I could cut them because they are rare.. All rough is photographed outside, full sun, on white paper. This is a perfect twinned crystal
