A large, impressive vanadinite specimen from a stash saved from mining a few years back, with fine, lustrous crystals to 1.3 cm in 3-dimensional stack standing well out from the undulating matrix, really showing them off at their finest. This is a very competitive price for a piece of this size and quality; though there are plenty of mediocre specimens around, the good specimens (such as this) continue to command good money. 10.1 X 8.0 X 5.5 cm
