Item Description

A striking and showy ball-like floater cluster of sharp, lustrous and translucent, light olive-green, grossular garnet crystals from the well-known Sierra de Cruces deposit of Mexico. The textbook dodecahedrons are up to 2.2 cm and every turn gives an entirely new perspective to this fine specimen. Nearly pristine, with only a tiny bit of contacting on one side. Highy representative material from the Zukowski Collection.
