Wonderful New England mineral classic featuring a perfectly placed, gem crystal of grossular garnet measuring 1 cm. on crystallized vesuvianite matrix from the classic Eden Mills locality in Vermont. Good Eden Mills garnets are becoming quite hard to come by and this is a great large cabinet-size example in great condition. Mark Cross photos.
