From the high-altitude pegmatites of Skardu, Pakistan, comes this remarkable Twin Garnet specimen. "Twinning" occurs when two separate crystals share some of the same crystal lattice points in a symmetrical manner, resulting in a unique, intergrown habit that is highly prized by mineralogists.
This deep red garnet exhibits sharp faces and a glassy luster, sitting perfectly atop a contrasting white Feldspar matrix. The compact size allows for the intricate details of the twinning law to be viewed clearly, making it an excellent piece for study or high-end display.
