AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Free-form rhodonite from Madagascar is a highly ornamental specimen, characterized by an intense and captivating color combination. Its smooth and polished surface highlights the vivid pink hue, punctuated by elegant black veins of manganese oxides, creating a unique and dynamic visual effect.
Rhodonite is a silicate mineral formed in manganese-rich metamorphic environments following geological processes involving high temperatures and pressures. This mineral can crystallize in association with calcite, spessartine, and other iron and manganese oxides, giving rise to the fascinating dark inclusions that crisscross the pink matrix.
The harmony between the black veins and the bright pink background makes these specimens perfect for decorating sophisticated environments, adding a touch of refinement and natural elegance.
In crystal therapy, Rhodonite is known as the stone of emotional healing and inner balance. It is said to help overcome trauma and emotional blockages, promoting the release of tension.
