Exceptionally large crystal of Vesuvianite from the renowned Sierra de Cruces locality in Mexico. This near complete, near floater is a remarkable 5.3 cm along its longest edge, and the light olive hue and very good luster are quite attractive. There are even some purplish-grey Garnets embedded on the surface of the Vesuvianite. This is a large, fine Vesuvianite, aesthetic for what it is and very good for an already top locality.
