Marvelous specimen of gem Hessonite Garnets with Diopside and Clinochlore from Bellecombe, Aosta Valley, Italy. The Hessonite crystals up to 7mm have rich red-brown color. They have sharp crystallization with strong luster and nicely reflect the light. The prismatic Diopside crystals are very well shaped and sharp with good luster. Rosettes of green Clinochlore aggregates are seen all over. It displays attractively all over 360 degree. In very good condition some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Cool!
