Meteorite or meteorong

Just added this gemmy, cherry-red Rhodonite crystal cluster to the shelves and I cannot get over the saturation on this piece. If you think it looks incredible under normal lighting, check the comments to see it completely catch fire when backlit! ❤️‍🔥
This specimen features beautiful, sharp bladed crystal habits straight out of the famous Morro da Mina Minein Conselheiro Lafaiete, Minas Gerais, Brazil! 🇧🇷 It even has a tiny metallic black amphibole inclusion nestled right in the crevices alongside that jaw-dropping neon crimson glow. Definitely a crown jewel in my collection now!

What’s the centerpiece in your collection right now? I’d love to see it!
