Item Description

Fine plate of sharp, terminated, and lustrous crystals of Manganvesuvianite. The largest of the Manganvesuvianites are about .9 cm long, with most about .6-.7 cm, and they span the specimen in one long pocket. Their luster is high and any good lighting brings out the deep red color of the crystals. Very aesthetic, sparkling piece overall of this rare species. Better in person.
