Complete 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal from old finds in Tanzania. These were mostly found as partial or damaged crystals with complete crystals such as this much less common. Equant form with no significant damage - I found a few small nicks but nothing significant. There are some black Braunite inclusions, but the orange areas are nice and gemmy.
