Killer Manganoan Vesuvianite specimen. The perfectly terminated crystals are gem. They have an amazing color of rich fuchsia-purple. The luster is very strong and the crystals are transparent and glassy. Among the most intense colors which the mine produced. The colorfulness of the specimen is gorgeous. Displays all over 360 degree. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In excellent condition – some small nicks and base contact. On acrylic base.
Outstanding!
