Item Description

An aesthetic cluster of intergrown, gemmy, grass-green andradite garnets is jauntily attached on top of quartz crystal matrix. The largest is about 6 mm, and all have good to excellent luster. The shape of the cluster, allowing each of the demantoids their indiviuality but still grouped together, as well as the white matrix it is nestled in, creates a very attractive piece. The specimen is beautiful on either side in its simplicity. Ex Charlie Key dealer stock.
