Fabulous honey-orange colored Grossular Garnets to 10mm. They are extremely transparent, gem quality with superb luster and deep rich color. They are glassy clear - pure orange water. Trapezohedral habit with sharp crystallization. All crystals have nice striations characteristic for Jeffrey mine. With such amazing gemminess, glassy luster and irresistible color it is truly superb Garnet from this great and inactive mine.

Great Jeffrey mine Garnet!
