Item Description

An impressive and uncommon large almandine garnet from a less well-known district 30km West of famed Broken Hill. The lustrous, textbook, dodecahedron has mottled reddish-brown color and patches of embedded green schist are a nice accent. Complete all-around and in great shape. The bit noted edge bruising is certainly only a modest detraction to this very fine example from this locale. This excellent large 360-degree almandine has multiple fine display views. Seldom on the market.
