This specimen looks at first glance like a Brumado uvite specimen - but, it is a plate of superbly lustrous andradite garnets, from Pakistan. First, a layer of bright olive-colored, smaller garnets grew. Later, three coffee-colored garnets - with two primary ones measuring half a centimeter each - having grown side-by-side.
