{"product_id":"andradite-var-demantoid","title":"ANDRADITE var. DEMANTOID","description":"A gorgeously formed lustrous ribbon of intergrown, gemmy-translucent green Demantoid crystals measuring overall to 4 cm on a creamy white Feldspar, from Madagascar.  Each of the four crystals is an equant 1 x 1 x 1 cm, three of which are mid-limey apple-green with one crystal, at the end, a purer lime-green.  The crystals form the dodecahedron combined with a trapezohedron and have smooth mirror-like faces and a bright glassy lustre.  This deposit is mined in one of the world's stranger locations, that of an intertidal area of mangrove swamp where local miners dig a myriad of approximately 3 m diameter pits which refill with water every high tide.  The deposit carries the charismatic name of the Antetezambato Demantoid - Topazolite mine and lies in the Diana Region of Madagascar.  Good quality specimens such as this are extremely rare.","brand":"Crystal Classics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57781499756879,"sku":"CC7302","price":3331.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/3748\/2063\/files\/CC7302_93454cba-f10a-418e-b16e-b777ba6f8ec6.jpg?v=1783991673","url":"https:\/\/crystalclassics.co.uk\/products\/andradite-var-demantoid","provider":"Crystal Classics UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
