A cool manganoan vesuvianite specimen from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The perfectly terminated crystals are gemmy. They have a pleasing purple color variation. The luster is very strong and the crystals are transparent and glassy. They are doubly terminated. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some small contacts. On acrylic base.
Splendid!
