A colorful specimen of vesuvianite var. manganoan from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The vesuvianite crystals are gemmy with charming color variations from rich and saturated purple to apple-green areas. It is with an exemplary, glassy luster and very well crystallized - very fresh and sparkling. It displays attractively on both sides. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some outside edge contacts. On acrylic base.

Striking colors!
