Directly from the high-altitude pockets of Skardu, this 110.7ct specimen highlights the beautiful symmetry of the garnet group. The centerpiece is a well-defined Red Garnet crystal, exhibiting a rich, saturated color and the characteristic dodecahedral habit. The crystal faces are sharp and possess a high-vitreous luster, allowing the deep red "inner glow" to emerge when the piece is properly lit.
The garnet is framed by silvery, semi-transparent books of Muscovite (Mica), which provide a metallic brilliance and a unique textural contrast. The entire association sits on a white Feldspar matrix, which acts as a natural spotlight for the darker tones of the garnet. This is a 100% natural, untreated thumbnail-to-small-cabinet specimen, ideal for collectors who value perfect mineral associations and the rugged beauty of Pakistani geology.
