Item Description
Two notable clusters of about a dozen Hausmannites each sit perfectly on a bed of deep-red Andradite Garnets. The Hausmannite and Garnets both have good luster and their own classic habits. The pseudo-octahedral Hausmannites range up to about 6 mm on edge, and the Garnets average about 2 mm.
