Rhodochrosite & Metal Bracelet from Argentina

Pink rhodochrosite stone beaded bracelet, hand made in northern Argentina by a local artisan. I bought this at a market in Salta, AR. Rhodochrosite is the national stone of Argentina. This is a very sweet bracelet - especially because of the added detail from the artisan - the metal spiral and three strands of beads together. Hook closure. I love it, but have hardly worn it.
