Spessartine Garnet on Smoky Quartz
A remarkable testament to the artistry of nature, striking fiery garnets emerge like glowing embers upon deep smoky quartz — a juxtaposition of shadow and flame. Each inclusion is perfectly poised, each facet revealing depth and beauty.
This rare pairing speaks of balance: the vitality of garnet tempered by the quiet strength of smoky quartz.
Each garnet is sharply defined, exhibiting perfect dodecahedral form and remarkable internal clarity that glows warmly beneath refined lighting. The contrast between the fiery translucence of the garnets and the subtle, smoky undertones of the quartz creates a sophisticated visual harmony rarely encountered even among premier Wushan finds.
Collected from the celebrated Wushan Spessartine Mine—renowned for producing some of the world’s most aesthetic garnet-on-quartz combinations—this specimen stands as a masterwork of balance and proportion.
Dimension: 2.5”x2.5”x1.5” 105g
Collector’s Note: Highly sought after among discerning private collectors, such specimens have become emblematic of modern Chinese mineral excellence. Beyond its immediate aesthetic allure, it represents a tangible intersection of geological wonder and refined taste—an enduring investment in beauty formed over millions of years beneath the earth’s surface. It is a piece of poetic duality, refined and bold, resonating with those who find power in contrast.
Highlights: Distinguished dodecahedral garnet with exceptional luster and clarity. Contrasting and bold smoky quartz points.
Origin: Wushan Spessartine Mine, Tongbei, Yunxiao Co., Fujian Prov., China
Metaphysical Properties:
Garnet’s metaphysical properties are extensive. It’s been used as a stone of protection but also for confidence. Garnet is thought to assist the body with circulation, thus helping remove toxins. It’s also been used to restore sexual energy and heal emotional wounds.
Smoky Quartz repells negative energies, alleviates anxiety, and promotes physical and emotional well-being. It’s my personal favorite for stomach issues, especially if they are anxiety related.
