Rhodochrosite AAA Gemstone Round Beads 12mm 14mm

These are old stock - natural AAA quality Rhodochrosite round beads in 12mm or 14mm. They are machine cut rounds that were expertly polished. Gorgeous color and horizontal banding on these beads. Rhodochrosite gemstones are from South America and are a gorgeous deep pink color with cream colored banding. They were a favorite of Native Americans and can be seen in Navajo silver jewelry. I think they look beautiful mixed with crystals, mother of pearl and black onyx.

• Size: 12mm or 14mm
• Strands are 15-15.5" long
