Item Description
Sharp, lustrous and gemmy, raspberry-red Grossular Garnets to 8 mm are isolated and loosely clustered on the contrasting, off-white, Quartz-rich matrix of this showy specimen from the famous Sierra de la Cruz locality of Mexico. These crystals have a sharp form, saturated color, and are wonderfully isolated on matrix. To this day, these remain a unique, beautiful Garnet find that is unlike any found elsewhere. A Mexican classic, but also a very fine and colorful Garnet specimen by any standard.
