Original combo of Vesuvianite and Diopside. Vesuvianites have varying color from intense purple to pleasing apple yellow-green. With strong luster - sparking and shiny. The main crystal is doubly terminated and gemmy. Diopsides are transparent and gemmy with pleasant honey color, grown atop and giving excellent finish to the specimen. For references see the issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some back side contacts. On acrylic base.
Lovely!
