Once upon a time specimens like this were plentiful. Today, fewer of these classic garnet specimens are available. Perched aesthetically on a micaceous schist are two modified dodecahedrons of reddish-brown, lustrous, almandine garnet. The larger of the two measures almost 3.0 cm across which is quite large for the locality!! 9.5 x 6.4 x 3.3 cm
