Superb Vesuvianite crystal of 25mm. It is transparent and gem with some translucent areas. The Vesuvianite has high quality and pleasing apple-green color. It is well shaped with sharp pointy tip and  glassy luster. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In very good condition – some small nicks and contacts. On acrylic base.

Marvelous!
