The photo is a pair of earrings against a white background. The earrings have 10mm pink and cream colored striped bezel set rhodochrosite stones. The bezels are soldered to pieces of thick twisted silver wire (1.25 inches) with a square bit of wire on top. Post earrings findings are soldered to the squares.

These are post earrings that feature 10mm pink and white striated, round Rhodocrosite stones. The bezel setting stones are attached to thick twisted sterling wire.

Day 12 #JanuArty2025, the prompt is ‘Pink’. These post earrings feature Rhodochrosite stones that I cut in 2022. The bezels are soldered to hand twisted silver.

On the one hand, I’m voting for & campaigning for the BLUE KNIFE #Kyanite bc it’s BLUE! OTOH… if #Rhodocrosite wins, at least I’ll never have to hear about it ever again. Nevertheless, stupid meat rock, I want vengeance for #Calcite!!!

I’m voting for the carbonate #Rhodocrosite.

Prior to Earth’s Great Oxygenic Event, Mn played an important role in photosynthetic processes, protecting new lifeforms from oxidation damage.

#Rhodocrosite and #Quartz coexist beautifully. I’m voting for #Rhodocrosite , which seems to be showing signs of carcinization in one of these specimens 😜
