Item Description
A very fine plate of deep wine-red Andradite Garnets from rare finds at the famous Wessels Mine. These Garnets, which are rare for this mine, have very good luster and range up to about .9 cm across. Their condition is excellent, and the deep red color is very attractive, especially under the right lighting. Truly, a excellent example for this find (1980s). Better in person, by far.
