Fascinating crystal of gem Vesuvianite from the famous Jeffrey mine, Quebec, Canada. The Vesuvianite has apple-green color to rich and saturated fuchsia cap. The luster is strong and the crystal is glassy. This is among the most intense color which the mine produced. For references see the 2013 issue of The Mineralogical Record vol. 44, # 4. In good condition – some small nicks and a base part contact. On acrylic base.

Splendid!
