Item Description

A classic specimen of the well-known Garnet Hill material featuring a single, sharp, textbook, well-formed, very dark-red trapezohedron of Spessartine measuring 8 mm set on contrasting pinkish volcanic matrix. We picked this piece from a good friend who lives in the area and recently stopped there to do some field collecting.
