Etched Spessartite Garnet
Aracuai, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Deep reddish-orange Spessartite garnets from Brazil, showing pronounced natural etching and geometric surface patterns. These sculptural pieces formed under high-temperature hydrothermal conditions that partially dissolved the crystal faces, creating a maze-like texture. Highly collectible for their rarity and distinctive structure—ideal for both specimen collectors and those drawn to unusual natural formations.
