Item Description
Glassy vesuvianite crystals form an aesthetic miniature specimen from the famous and now-closed Jeffrey Mine. The sharp crystals are partially gemmy, have excellent size, up to 2.0 cm and very pretty light apple-green color. Patches of purple manganoan vesuvianite are a nice accent. The display view is in great shape, with only a trivial bit of periphery wear on the left side. Contacting on the back is out of sight. Classic material.
