Item Description

Aesthetic, well-defined cluster of four gemmy, grass-green to olive-green Andradite Garnets. The largest is about1.2 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 tan matrix it is nestled in, creates a very attractive piece. The specimen is beautiful in its simplicity and the quality of the Garnets. They were found in the 1990s. valued $500-750
