A fascinating specimen of bi-color vesuvianite crystals from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. They have from a purple color to apple-green areas. The crystals are gem, with a strong glassy luster and are well shaped. Tabular, caramel to colorless diopside crystals are seen too. They are sharp, lustrous and transparent. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.
Gorgeous!
