The rough for these unusual Rhodonite donuts comes from the Huánuco region (Spanish: Región Huánuco, Departamento de Huánuco), an area in the central Peruvian Andes. The light pink has inclusions of white, beige and black that make each gemstone donut distinctive in its pattern.
The Rhodonite donuts have a diameter of 5cm and are therefore especially suitable for men.
The first scientific description of Rhodonite was made in 1819 by the German naturalist Christoph Friedrich Jasche. The pink color inspired Jasche to name it "Rhodonite", which is derived from the Greek word "rhodon" meaning rose or rose-scented. Occasional spellings like rhodonite, rodonite or rodonite are therefore not correct.
