Fascinating Manganoan Vesuvianite specimen from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The perfectly flat terminated crystals are gemmy. They have an pleasing color variation from purple to fuchsia-purple at the caps. The luster is very strong and the crystals are glassy. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition - some small contacts. On acrylic base.
Marvelous!
