Item Description
A few "fanned-out", modified dodecahedral Demantoid crystals are strewn across the upper portion of this thumbnail specimen. The impressive quality, gemminess, and luster of the crystals is hard to miss. Depending upon which light the piece is viewed under, the color ranges from a yellow-green to a bluish-green. A real beauty, that is loaded with crystals and color! The largest crystal measures 1.1 cm.
