Item Description
Moroccan Vanadinites simply are the finest examples of the species extant. The best pieces still command a premium on the market, even though specimens are still being found to this day. This piece features excellent red, sharp, lustrous, tabular crystals forming a very attractive somewhat "heart"-shaped display specimen. A good quality Vanadinite thumbnail from this famous locality. The form and aesthetics make it a very eye-catching piece of this well known material.
