Four specimens of Vesuvianite and Grossular crystals from a recent find in Mexico (not the Lake Jaco occurrence!). There are 3 combos of yellow Vesuvianite with attached pink Grossular crystals (largest 5cm). My favorite has is a partial Vesuvianite with a glossy 1.3cm pink Grossular on top, complete and well formed (this specimen alone is worth $50). There is also a single Vesuvianite crystal with dark golden coloration, translucent and partially double-terminated.
