Vesuvianite       Tonpite, Sidelt, Morocco. This piece is a stocky double terminated crystal measuring 5.6 cm in length. It is a rich brownish green color, translucence and a very high luster. These specimen always seemed to be around for only a year or two during an early 2000s. This is an exceptionally large, lustrous specimen with only a couple small areas on the back of the piece having contacts from matrix. Both terminarions are very nice and there is no damage.  Very nice piece. $145
