A complete, gemmy, thick crystal of vivianite, with the classic bottle-green color for Bolivian vivianites, Some of the contrasting matrix is still attached on the contact side, where the crystal was removed. Even though this crystal is a full 1.3 cm thick, the light still gets through it - it is very gemmy!
