Top quality jewel of gem Garnet var. Grossular crystals with green phantoms from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The Grossular crystals are gem and clear up to 5mm. They have grass-green cores due to Chromium. The crystals have razor sharp rhombic dodecahedral habit and glassy luster. The quality is outstanding. Colorless Pectolite needle crystals are seen too. The white base gives a strong contrast. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. Some contacts. On acrylic base.

Exceptional!
