Description
Here we have a downright locality whopper of intergrown Vesuvianite crystals to 2,6 cm from Italian alpine locale Bellecombe of Aosta valley. The well formed and nicely striated crystals here showing fine root-beer colour, they are sharp edged and mirror bright with only minor edge wear. Vesuvianite crystals from Bellecombe with this specific size and quality are meanwhile pretty rare and seldom seen for sale and for reasonable prices on the mineral market.
