Rhodonite bowl
Particularly high-quality, color-intensive rhodonite with few inclusions and a high-quality thin cut make this bowl a true masterpiece of gemstone processing!
This unique specimen has an impressive wall thickness of just 3 mm! Thus, the rhodochrosite appears partially translucent even under normal room lighting.
Unique rhodonite bowl handmade in the gemstone metropolis of Idar-Oberstein.
During production, the rhodonite is hollowed out by hand using increasingly fine grinding wheels and then polished.
Another feature of the high craftsmanship is the wave-like shape, which demands a high degree of skill from the artist.
This extremely complicated and time-consuming work is only carried out by very few artists today.
Rare and extremely high-quality, unique collector's item from the Idar Oberstein workshops.
The rhodonite most likely comes from Ampanihy, Atsimo-Andrefana, Madagascar.
