Gorgeous Vesuvianite specimen with intergrown crystals. The perfectly terminated crystals are with pointy tips and many are doubly terminated. They have intense dark purple color. The luster is strong and the tips are gem. Above are grown small sparkling Clinochlore crystals. Displays nicely all over 360 degree. For references see the issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some small contacts and nicks. On acrylic base.
Marvelous!
