Sparkling specimen of gem Hessonite Garnets with Clinochlore from Bellecombe, Aosta Valley, Italy. The Hessonite crystals to 4mm are gem with rich and saturated red-brown color. They have very sharp rhombic-dodecahedral crystallization with strong luster and nicely reflect the light. Some Clinochlore aggregates are seen too. The colorfulness of the specimen is very pleasing. Displays on both sides. In very good condition - outside edge contacts.
Marvelous Italian Garnets!
