Item Description

This piece is an attractive, lustrous deep crimson red trapezohedron from this obscure locality. For the size it's amazingly sharp and well-formed. If you collect Garnets, or obscure U.S. minerals, or even more specifically, minerals of North Carolina, do not miss out on this one. Hard to find on the market, as I've only seen a few others. Ex Cynthia Payne Collection.
