Here we have excellent material of quality rarely seen from the famous Bellecombe locality! This small
batch is from a one time find in 1978 and just recently released out of an old collection. These stacked
groupings as well as elongated crystal morphology are ideal for top level alpine garnet specimens. All
examples show super luster, no damage, and gemmy areas. Rare opportunity to acquire a very classy
hessonite!
