Description

This Grossular is confirmed by analyzes!! Here you have the chance to get a not typical and rare Garnet for Austria. This specimen is self collected and one of the best crystal group from that location. Some single crystals can be larger but groups on matrix are quite special and that is one of the best. The specimen is in a very good condition and shows sharp edged dark brown - black Grossular. A rare piece from my collection.

Please watch the video in HD to see the whole piece!!!
