Grossular
Unknown Owner
Attractive lustrous deep red crystals of grossular measuring to 0.6 cm in size on matrix with green platy crystals of clinochlore. The crystals are slightly translucent. Micro-chipping present but minimal, I feel that the specimen is in good condition. Classic material for this Italian locality.
