Wonderful specimen of pink colored Grossular Garnets to 1mm attractively set with green Diopsides and Albite. The Grossular crystals are transparent, gem quality with strong luster and pleasant, tender pink color. Small green Diopsides are seen around. The pink Grossulars are underlined nicely by the white-green background. Extremely rare pink Garnets from this great, closed now mine. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some contacts. On acrylic base.

Splendid pink Garnets!
