Spessartine (ex Rich Kosnar Collection)

Item Description

A very aesthetic and showy thumbnail specimen featuring a fairly sharp, semi-lustrous, deep red color trapezohedron of Spessartine with dodecahedral modifications, with a few white crystals of Albite (var: "Pericline") along the edges of the Spessartine to create an aesthetic and eye-catching thumbnail. The piece is nearly a floater were it not for a small contact from a previous Albite crystal on the other side of the piece. Overall, it is a really cool garnet specimen, and one of the few I have seen like it.
