This stunning mineral specimen features vibrant red Spessartine garnet crystals perched on a matrix of white albite, accompanied by clear quartz crystals, sourced from the mountainous regions of Pakistan. The Spessartine garnets exhibit rich, deep red hues with a striking transparency that allows light to pass through, creating a brilliant sparkle. These well-formed, lustrous crystals contrast beautifully against the snowy white albite, a feldspar mineral that provides a clean, elegant background. Interspersed among the garnets are clear to slightly milky quartz crystals, which add another layer of brilliance and textural variety. The combination of colors and crystal forms makes this specimen a visually captivating piece, showcasing the natural beauty and geological complexity of the region it hails from.Â
