I have been told that the best rhodocrosite has a rich color with little to no banding. These beads are cut so that the lighter bands tend to lie on one surface of the twists, & the body of the bead is a rich pink color.
The twists measure about 16x7mm. I linked each with sterling silver wire, finishing with a Bali sterling silver s-clasp.
The necklace is 21 7/8 inches long (can be worn shorter by hooking the clasp between two beads as shown), with a weight of 1.5 oz.
I made earrings to match. The French hooks, headpins, and daisy spacers on the ends are all sterling silver. The dangles are about 3/4 inches long, and the earrings weigh 0.2 oz.
