Superb bi-color Vesuvianite specimen. Vesuvianite crystals are gem with charming color variations from rich purple centers to apple-green tips. The colors are intense and the contrast is very strong. With exemplary glassy luster and very well crystallized. Many crystals are doubly terminated. It is crystallized all over and displays beautifully from many sides. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In excellent condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.
Beauteous Vesuvianite!
