There’s something so fetching about rosy-hued rhodonite gemstone beads. Their color is subtle and feminine, yet the natural variations in the stone add an element of the unexpected. Rhodonite is characterized by naturally-forming streaks of calcite, a white mineral, which adds a special sense of dimension and organic texture to Rhodonite Beads. Rhodonite can also feature black criss-crossing lines, which are actually veins of black manganese oxide. As a result, there are always an endless number of fascinating patterns in every piece of this stunning mineral.
