A top quality and extremely sparkling specimen of Garnet var. Grossular to 2mm with very small black Chromite inclusions. The crystals are with super deep emerald green color - result of Chromium. On the back side the crystals are light green. Rhombic dodecahedral, sharp crystallization, glassy luster and irresistible color. 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 excellent condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.

Astonishing glowing green gems!
