Two rich, nickel green, translucent to opaque well-formed crystals of the uncommon Garnet, Uvarovite measuring to 1.2 cm, from Outokumpu in the Eastern Region of Finland. This size of crystals is quite large for the species and have formed on a mixed sulphide and Diopside matrix. A fine example of this sought after chromium-bearing Garnet.
