Large GEM quality Grossular with smaller Grossular on matrix.The big crystal is 1.8cm wide and fully transparent with a rich orange color, so clear you could cut some nice gemstones just from the one crystal, though all the smaller crystals are equally gemmy. The bottom of the big crystal has an angular indentation in it where another large crystal was formerly located. And if that's not enough, the backside hosts an equally gemmy 1.5cm wide crystal. Valued at $400 (would be $3000 without the indentation).
