Item Description
An aesthetic, well-defined thumbnail cluster of gemmy, leaf-green andradite garnets. The largest is 8 mm, and all have excellent luster. The shape of the cluster, allowing each of the demantoids their individuality but still grouped together, creates a very attractive piece. One crystal is contacted, but has no damage. The specimen is beautiful in its simplicity. The backlit photos highlight the gemminess and beautiful green color density. Ex Charlie Key dealer stock. valued $300
