About This Rhodochrosite

Rhodochrosite is part of the carbonate family.

These tumbled stones come from Catamarca Province, Argentina. It's soft (Mohs 3.5), so handle it with a little care, keep it dry, and store it in its own pouch so harder stones don't scratch it.

Traditionally Used For

Rhodochrosite is traditionally a stone for working through difficult feelings at your own pace, opening to connection, with yourself and others, and coming back to yourself with kindness. It's traditionally linked to the heart chakra. If that resonates, keep it nearby during quiet moments or by the bed for rest. Let it become part of your own quiet routine.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

Questions Before You Buy

Is this real rhodochrosite, and is it heated, dyed or treated?

Natural rhodochrosite from Catamarca Province, Argentina. Untreated.

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens are listed separately and say so.

What size are the pieces, and how many are in a pound?

Each piece measures 0.75 to 1.25 inches on its longest side and weighs 10 to 40 grams. About 24 to 40 pieces per pound at this size, and each option shows its piece count.

What does A grade mean?

Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.

Where does it come from, and how do you know?
