Spessartine Garnet on Smoky Quartz

Item Description

Rich cinnamon-orange, scintillating, gem, spessartine garnet dodecahedrons, to about 5 mm, richly and preferentially cover only the prism faces along with another generation of tiny golden-yellow spessartines of the striking smoky and entrancing side car on this dramatic and very aesthetic 360-degree specimen. The lustrous, sharply terminated smokies have pitted faces. The piece is essentially pristine, with only a trivial bruise to the tip of the small smoky. A very choice combination small cabinet. Very little new material has come out recently and supplies have dried up.
