Item Description
Beautiful, rich cinnamon-orange, gem, grossular garnets form a striking miniature from the famous Jeffrey Mine. The crystals have classic striated faces. The impressive central crystal is 1.8 cm. This cutie would easily be valued at over $1500, if pristine. However, the corner in the middle of the large crystal has a bit of attached matrix with a small bruise. This remains a very fine, highly representative, gemmy garnet with rich color from the Jeffrey.
