Collection: Garnet var. Grossular from Fontana del Preive, Italy

Grossular garnet from Fontana del Preive in Piedmont is distinguished by its richly saturated color and well-defined crystal form. Belonging to the garnet group, these specimens present in characteristic orange-yellow to orange-red tones, with dodecahedral or trapezohedron crystal habits typical of fine grossular. Piedmont has long been recognized as a source of exceptional mineral specimens, and Fontana del Preive upholds that tradition — an important representation of Italian garnet mineralogy in any serious collection.
