Excellent Vesuvianite specimen with intergrown crystals sticking out all over. The perfectly terminated crystals are translucent to transparent and gem. They have marvelous color variation from purple to apple-green. The luster is very strong. Displays well from many sides. For references see the issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some contact areas (seen on the photos).

Irresistible!
