Pleasing specimen of gem Hessonite Garnets with Diopside and Clinochlore from Susa Valley, Torino Province, Italy. The Hessonite crystals up to 2mm are gem with rich wine-red color. They have sharp crystallization with strong luster and nicely reflect the light. Diopside crystals and minor Clinochlore are seen too. In very good condition – some outside edge contacts. On acrylic base.

Splendid!
