Keep the gorgeous photos coming everyone! Here's mine for today - a nephrite jade bangle with a fake jade ring and a real jade ring. But the fake jade ring is not really an imposter because it was accurately advertised as a chrysoprase stone. Though some unscrupulous sellers might try to pass off chrysoprase as jade/jadeite. The real jade ring is Guatemalan jadeite in a fun chambray denim blue color. Both are set in sterling silver. I really should wear my chrysoprase ring more often. It looks nice with jade doesn't it! 
Nice ring! And love those bangles!!!
Thanks for the compliments Uli and lsk!
It always makes me think of my Dad, since I found it and purchased it when he passed away, and I read that rhodonite will help in dealing with grief. Somehow I attached that task to it, so it's special to me. It's funny the things we attach to our jewelry isn't it?
Where Does It Come From... Rhodonite Meaning
The name Rhodonite comes from the Greek word meaning 'a rose', which relates to its rose pink color. These stones come in a range of colors from pale pink though to a deep rose pink almost red. Although the lighter pink stones are becoming more popular you will see many stones that are a deeper pink with inclusions of black manganese oxide in them.
