This specimen consists of what is essentially a large, floater cluster of sharp, glassy, gemmy crystals of peachy-orange grossular garnet var. hessonite!!! This specimen is completel...y crystalline all the way around!!! Aside from two slivers of matrix included within, light passes through the specimen in a most attractive fashion!!! The crystals range in size up to an impressive 1.5cm!!! This specimen retains a label from a noted collection with a note that it was collected May, 1971!!! Aside from a few trivial nics the specimen is nearly pristine and displays stunningly in person!!! A very fine Canadian beauty indeed!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
