Description

Up for sale is a large bulk parcel of beautiful natural garnet rough collected in Montana approximately 30 years ago. These were personally hand dug by me and have remained in my collection ever since.
The material has recently been cleaned with water and soap only and is being sold in its natural, uncut, unpolished condition. There may still be some natural sand or minor residue remaining.
The stones display beautiful shades of deep red, burgundy, raspberry, pinkish-red, and purplish red. Many of the individual garnets are translucent to transparent when separated and held to the light. Some appear very dark or nearly black in the group photos because they are stacked together and the color becomes much deeper when viewed through multiple stones.

• Natural Montana garnet rough
