You can see how these fine Taouz vanadinite crystals differ from the more common (and familiar) ones from Mibladen. They have orange tones and a beautiful shimmering, almost iridescent quality to them. Also, the black contrasting matrix is very distinctive and adds further beauty. These crystals measure to one centimeter.
