Item Description
A large, textbook, and uncommon Almandine Garnet from Zimbabwe. The Karoi District is well-known for its gemmy blue Euclases, Topaz crystals, and yellow-green Heliodors, but surprisingly not these fine Almandines. This FLOATER has excellent form and is in very good condition, with only minor wear on a few edges. The luster is high, and it really help bring out the deep mahogany color. These rare Garnets date back to the 1970s, as Southern Rhodesia officially became Zimbabwe in April, 1980. The form of the crystal, as well as the luster, help create a fine aesthetic that really catches the eye. ex George Elling Collection.
