Almandine Garnet (RARE Brazil) Trimingham Coll.

Item Description

Almandine garnets are RARE from this State, as MINDAT does not list the species. A striking, very sharp, floater almandine garnet dodecahedron with nifty veining and rust-red to dark reddish-brown color has moderate luster. It is possibly from Paraiba State. A fine rarity. Ex Trimingham Collection.
