Rhodos from the Sweet Home have become depressingly hard to get and expensive, in any quality at all. Here is a cluster of good pinkish-red rhombs, the ones at the center in fine condition, to one centimeter across. They are sitting on a contrasting matrix of milky and transparent quartz crystals. You can also see some sparing sulfides here and there.
