Cute Vesuvianite specimen. Vesuvianite crystals are with splendid colored raspberry caps and cream centers. They are gemmy and have good luster, very fresh look and are strongly light reflective. Fine Vesuvianite coloration – very vivid, very sparkling. For references see the issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. Some contacts. On acrylic base.
Charming!
