13.46 carat natural garnet with a good oval cut and unique crystal inclusions

Description

13.46 carat dark red natural garnet.  It has a good oval cut with crystalline inclusions that make it a unique gemstone and verify its natural origins.  I "mined" this Garnet at a commercial gem mining establishment in Spruce Pine NC, then had it cut.  It's rarely been handled and is in great condition.
