The Vesuvianite crystals are gem with rich and saturated purple color to some apple-green areas. The luster is strong and the crystals are glassy. The main one is doubly terminated. It displays attractively all over 360 degree. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some contacts. On acrylic base.
