An uncommonly gemmy example of Kenyan Vesuvianite / Idocrase. The best green material is typically cab grade, so we don’t often see faceted stones with a good return of light and nice brilliance. Actually, this one didn’t even photograph particularly well - it is considerably better in person - the crystalline ‘clumps’ being quite low relief. Quite large for these and a very attractive color.
