Very aesthetic thumbnail of garnet variety spessartine on green mica from the classic locality.The crystal has excellent quality,with sharp,textbook form,top luster and wine red color,which glows when backlight.The contrast to the matrix is superb.All crystals are pristine and complete.Please note that the photos do not show backlight color,Mining in the locality is now prohibited,since collectors used too many explosives near the village,so nothing more will be coming out any time soon,and this is a fine piece!
