Rhodochrosite Drop Bead Pendant

This Rhodochrosite drop bead pendant is hand-carved from genuine Argentine rhodochrosite. This material is world-famous for its distinct, agate-like banding and beautiful gemmy inclusions, which create a vibrant play of pink and rose tones. Each piece is meticulously shaped into a large dew drop and highly polished to highlight the stone's natural patterns and luster.

The pendant is drilled from side to side at the top with a hole diameter of approximately 3 mm. This makes it the perfect size for leather cords, blank necklaces. Because each bead is hand-carved, every pendant is slightly unique in its color distribution and exact form.

Sourced from Argentina, these pendants measure approximately 1 to 1 1/4 inches in length and nearly 3/4 inch in width. They represent a high-quality mineral specimen in a versatile jewelry format, ideal for collectors and jewelry designers alike.
