Old-stock rhodochrosite crystal from Peru with vivid red color and sharp, stepped crystal faces. This piece has remained in a private collection for over 40 years and likely originates from the Uchucchacua Mine in the Oyon Province—one of the most important localities for collector-grade rhodochrosite known for its saturated color, scalenohedral habits, and manganese-rich matrix associations
