DESCRIPTION:

NEW FIND of an unidentified Red Garnet in complete crystals coming from Kunar, Afghanistan. It is rare to find Garnet in its crystal shape in nature and this is a very unusual find of Garnet where almost every stone is a perfect crystal with good to excellent crystal faces. The color ranges from a Pinkish Red to a Deep Cranberry Red. There is some nice facetable material in here; however, most of it is very slightly included at best and relatively small in size. This is a great price for this material and we strongly recommend it for the beginning Crystal and/or Mineral Specimen Collector!
COOL FACTS:

  1. There has been a very limited amount of Garnet that has been produced in Afghanistan and it is rarely facet grade. This is the FIRST lot of this material that I have seen enter the market.

  2. We ARE THE MINERS for this rough and as such we have the best prices available!!! There is nowhere you can pick this material up at this price.
