Perfect crystal of lustrous Garnet var. Andradite var. Melanite from Kayes Region, Mali. One dominant 25mm crystal is decorated by smaller ones. The Melanites are black with perfect razor-sharp rhombic dodecahedral habit and strong luster. They have pretty beveled edges. Some very small unidentified crystals grow above. The specimen is complete all over floater. In very good condition – some small contacts.
Superb!
