This 38.12 gram raw, green-blue Vivianite specimen from Brazil has extreme translucence and vivid coloring with pleochroism. It has a perfectly terminated Ludlamite crystal set within the craggy chalcedony matrix stone and a distinct phantom inclusion within the blade of Vivianite. This fragile specimen is just 1.5-2 on the hardness scale, so it is quite fragile and to be handled with care. It will retain its coloring best out of direct sunlight, as the iron content can tarnish and darken the color in the sun. This specimen represents a high-grade example of this sought-after collector’s mineral. It measures approximately 55 x 45 x 22 millimeters.
