Rhodochrosite is a manganese carbonate mineral of the Calcite group. It is known for its rasberry-pink to rose-red color, and often has a vitreous and pearly luster banded in layers ranging from white to light pink. Rhodochrosite is often referred to as Rasberry Spar, Manganese Spar, and most notably as Inca Rose (the Incas believed Rhodochrosite was the blood of their ancestral rulers that had turned to stone). Though most Rhodochrosite is in the pink to red color range, it can also be yellow, orange or brown. Known as the Stone of the Compassionate Heart, Rhodochrosite symbolizes selfless love, moving one beyond mere empathy and stirring one to action on others' behalf. Rhodochrosite inspires dynamic and positive attitude, encouraging one to take action to express love and emotions. Rhodochrosite beautifully guides one in the quest for emotional happiness, helping one move forward after a period of fear and doubt. Rhodochrosite helps one to be mentally enlivening, stimulating creativity and enhancing passion and sense of personal power.

Thread preference:
• Stretch floss is made up of multiple strands of stretch material woven together and can provide incredible stretch and recoil, while being less likely to permanently stretch out. It is not as strong as elastic cord, and frequently worn bracelets using stretch floss will generally need to be restrung at least once a year.
• Elastic cord is a transparent, singular, rubbery thread that is stronger than stretch floss but does not have as much stretch and recoil potential, making it more prone to breakage and permanently losing its elasticity when stretched to its limit. Elastic cord offers strength, durability and longevity, while stretch floss provides versatility and pliancy.
• It is recommended to restring bracelets at least every 1-2 years to maintain strength and elasticity.
