Single 'citrus' orange Spessartine crystal from old finds in Tanzania. The surface is well crystallied over about 60% of the surface with indentations from other crystal on the rest. The color is excellent and there are lots of transparent areas that could cut small gems. Translucent orange with no black inclusions. And did I say great color? Yes.
