Item Description
A gorgeous specimen from this classic locale, now closed, that features SHARP AND GEMMY garnet crystals to 1.3 cm on the best kind of contrasting matrix (stark white pectolite crystals). This is a superb specimen with a major dominant crystal, way beyond normal quality you see around the marketplace. Only a tiny ding mars the main crystal on very close inspection. Color is sensational, very richly saturated. Luster is high, and the contrast is excellent. Valued $750-950
