This Rhodochrosite comes from miners in Ancash, Peru.

This lapidary drum tumbles stones in Cape Town, South Africa. It is a family business, founded by a father and passed on to his sons. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The lapidary sells primarily at two gemshows, one in the United States and the other in France.

I have been doing business with this source since 2014. They are the oldest tumbling company in the world and have more varieties, in more sizes, than any other known source. The company started in California in the 1950s and was eventually bought by a British immigrant who had young sons. Eventually the company moved to South Africa in order to be closer to the source of their best-selling stone and to have the legal rights to export it. The company is now run by the sons and their childhood best friend.

The current owners personally visit many small and large mines. To connect with artisanal miners in sub-Sahara Africa, they work with local Gem Dealers who travel far into the bush to buy from part-time miners. The majority of these Gem Dealers are women. Some, but not all, of their stones are labeled with country-of-origin. For those that aren’t, I ask the owners directly. As I’ve learned more about mining practices in individual countries, I have become increasingly selective about what I will purchase from them. However, they remain my preferred source for most of the stones I sell from sub-Sahara Africa.

Rhodochrosite Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published July 2014  •  Updated august 2024  •  Read Time: 4 minutes
Rhodochrosite is a powerful stone for love and healing.  It is a pink carbonite mineral that is found primarily along the Pacific coastline of North and South America.  It is the national gemstone of Argentina.  Rhodochrosite is sometimes confused with Rhodonite, another pink mineral with a similar name.  While both are love stones, Rhodochrosite has a distinctively light-hearted energy.  It is a stone of true love that attracts our soul mates to us.  It can also help us to heal a broken heart if we’ve given our love and trust to the wrong person.  Rhodochrosite evokes the Goddess and invites us to ask ourselves “what would love do?” […]

    I just wanted to thank you for the care taken with my order. I just received my crystals in the mail, and I already feel the beautiful positive flowing energy from them as I took each one out of the package. I’m looking forward to working with each of them.

    Beautiful high vibrational stone. I’m going to be honest, I was concerned about the prices being too high. Yes you can get cheaper stones elsewhere . You DO get what you pay for . The prices are worth the clean vibrations , fast shipping and exceptional stones . This is my fourth stone. I was so impressed that I ordered two more stones.

    Julie’s stones always feel great, in addition to their quality and beauty, and this one seems to say “take me with you and let me wash those useless pains away” :)
