Item Description

Aesthetic, well-defined cluster of three gemmy, grass-green Andradite Garnets. The largest is about .5 cm, and all have good to excellent luster. The shape of the cluster, allowing each of the Demantoids their indiviuality but still grouped together, as well as the white matrix it is nestled in, creates a very attractive piece. The specimen is beautiful in its simplicity. There are even a few more Dematoids in the matrix just below the three main crystals.
