Well polished tumbled stones made of dark Rhodochrosite!
PU with 0.5kg; this contains approx. 27 - 31 stones.
The Rhodochrosites are approx. 2.8 - 4.0cm in size.
Rhodochrosite is used in gemstone healing to increase activity and dynamism; the pink-colored mineral supports a lively, cheerful and busy attitude.
Abraham Gottlob Werner (1749-1817) initially named rhodochrosite manganese spar, taking into account its chemical composition and good cleavage properties. Friedrich Hausmann (1782-1859) gave rhodochrosite its current name "Rhodochrosite" in 1813. This is derived from the ancient Greek words "rhodo" (rose) and "chrosit" (color). Spellings such as rhodhocrosite, rhodochosite, rhodocrosite, rodhocrhosite, rodochrosite or rodocrosite are therefore incorrect. Nowadays, obsolete names for Rhodochrosite are Inkaspat/Inkarose, raspberry spar, rose spar and manganese spar.
