Item Description

The Jeffrey Mine has produced what are arguably the best Grossulars in the world. This large plate has Garnets on both sides, with the primary view having a series of lustrous and GEMMY cinnamon-colored Grossulars up to 1.7 cm across. With the mine closed and the supply totally dried up, pieces of this quality, no matter what the size, are in great demand by collectors and are so very hard to come by. Excellent aesthetics and quality. Formerly in the collection of well-known Italian collector Dr. Francesco Bedogne. A superb classic, in cabinet size, and rare on the market. No damage. valued $3000-4500
