Superb small jewel of high quality Garnet var. Grossular var. Chromian from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The crystals are super gem and clear up to 2,5mm. They have very deep and saturated grass-green color due to Chromium. They are with sharp crystallization, glassy luster and irresistible color. Light green Diopside crystals grow on the base. Choice piece from this closed mine - very colorful and gem. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some side contacts. On acrylic base.

Splendid gem-green Garnets!
