Item Description

Attention Garnet collectors! These specimens are some of the most beautiful yet hard to find Garnets from the United States. The combination of the alluring green hue and SHARP / TEXTBOOK dodecahedral crystals makes them superb for what they are. This piece hosts a good sized (1.6 cm), very sharp, lustrous, well-formed, undamaged Grossular Garnet crystal aesthetically flaring off the underlying matrix. This area might be well-known for its Grossulars, but they are few and far between on the market, especially on matrix. How often does one have an opportunity to purchase a matrix specimen of green Garnet from any U.S. locality? Don't miss out on this one.
