Killer top quality Manganoan Vesuvianite specimen of intergrown crystals from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The perfectly flat terminated crystals are gem. They have an amazing color variation from purple to very saturate and rich fuchsia-purple at the caps and apple-green centers. 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 – one small back side contact. On acrylic base.
Exceptional!
