Vesuvianite

A single glassy prism of yellow-green Vesuvianite from the great Jeffrey Mine. In perfect condition sections are gem clear, transparent and other parts are translucent with wispy internal veils. One edge of the prism has a dusting of tiny transparent Vesuvianites that are nearly colorless. Somewhat dichroic, this more yellow hue is much less common than the more apple green colors. The Jeffrey Mine produced many fine Vesuvianites, certainly the world's best but also was the source of many rare and unique colors. This is a nice and relatively affordable crystal, impressive for the size and nicer in person.
