Description

A beautiful Demantoid cluster from Belqeys Mountain, Takab, West Azerbaijan Province in Iran.

The specimen displays a perfect, isometric crystal habit, a high degree of transparency, as well as an astounding, sparkly brilliant luster that reminds of that of a diamond. The crystals display the most vivid, emerald green coloration, with some being sectioned into a darker, slightly opaque part in contrast to the bright green and transparency of the rest of the crystal.

The specimen is in perfect condition, with no visible damage.
