A beautiful and aesthetic cluster of lustrous, translucent, light cherry-red rhodochrosite rhombs from the 1996 Hedgehog Pocket of the very famous and now-closed Sweet Home Mine. A couple of quartz needles on the left are a nice compliment and the only damage is a cleaved crystal in the lower, middle-front.
