Bright 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal from famous finds in Tanzania. Most from this locality were partial crystals - this one is crystallized all around. Perfect and undamaged aside from a couple tiny, trivial edge nicks. It has areas of black inclusions but also clean gem zones, and the overall equant form is superb. Weighs a hefty 33.66 grams.
