Colorful and sparkling specimen of Garnet var. Grossular to 2mm crystals. The crystals are with super deep emerald green color - result of Chromium. Rhombic dodecahedral, sharp crystallization, glassy luster and irresistible color. On the back side the color is lighter green. The crystals are gem. The specimen displays beautifully all over 360 degree. Very hard to find one of these now – the mine is inactive. This is of truly superior quality – ultimate freshness and colorfulness. For references see the issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some nicks (seen on the photos). On acrylic base.
Astonishing glowing green gems!
