Item Description

A rarely seen specimen of amethyst on a sparkling greenish-yellow andradite garnet matrix from an unlikely locality in Arizona. We have never seen anything like that found in USA, or the rest of world. Only a few dozens of miniatures were found, and all these finds were from small pockets in 2021-2022 by an Arizona field collector. Ex: Jingnan (Tom) Zhang Coll. Amethyst on garnet is a special combination!
