Item Description
Classic Tongbei - one large feldspar crystal completely covered with GEMMY Spessartine Garnets. The beautful Garnets are gemmy, deep orange, and the largest are .5 cm across. Most have superb, glass-like faces, and some of the faces have the classic striated that makes them so special. An excellent, aesthetic specimen in which every mm is completely covered by Garnets. Even the contacted base has been treated to a coating of micro Garnets. Aesthetic, and very high quality.
