A sharp, lustrous, wine-red almandine garnet crystal with gemmy highlights aesthetically straddles the edge of waxy luster plates of greenish-black chlorite schist. The textbook, dodecahedral crystal is 1.9 cm. Classic, old-time material from the Mullane Collection and comes with an Anton Berger label, well-known Austrian mineral dealers from the 1920s-1950s. The label has a December, 1952 date on it.
