I have some big pieces already, but, it's so rare to find unless you go to New Mexico area that I went ahead and got another piece. My favorite color.

Rhodochrosite reminds me of bacon every time I see it. I've said that here before.

@SharkE.  I recently took some friends visiting from Boston shopping at Bien Mur, the store on the Sandia Pueblo.  They have all sorts of Indian-made goods, including tons of jewelry.

I was surprised to see that they had a lot of rhodocrosite, including a few I wouldn't mind owning.  

My friends spent a small fortune there.  Fun shopping with them.

@SharkE. No, I don't think so.

Some people call it the 'Bacon Stone'...for real.

What a nice bracelet!  Great coloration in the stones.  Hard to find nowadays.  You have some really beautiful pieces.

I've never heard it called the 'bacon stone' before.  Blech.  I prefer to think of it as 'strawberries and cream'.  Much more apropos.

Didn't Carolyn used to present this?  Currently 7 items are showing and none are hers.
