I have a several Romanian pieces but sadly no good rhodochrosite such as yours. Like other classic rhodos (e.g. German ones) they are hard to get and very scarce on the market.

I remember some time ago I watched a video from Bluecap Productions where Rob Lavinsky presented some of his high-class minerals. Among them was a similiar kyanite cluster from Brazil and he also said that this mineral actually is nothing for him and his customers but very seldom there's such a good one that can be considered a really fine mineral. Looks like you also had the luck getting such a stunner :-)
You really have a fine collection of selected pieces, I love to watch your contributions and I hope there will be many more of your specimens.
Regards
Tobi
