A large deep wine-red Spessartine crystal on white feldspar with other smaller Spessartine crystals and black crystals of what is possibly Tantalite. The main crytals is 4.5cm in size and very complex, featuring typical flat crystals faces, etched faces, and a hollow area on the left side with a mound-shaped crystal mass in the center. The main crystal is fully crystallized all around and nearly pristine. Ex. Len Pisciotta collection and one of my favorite pieces in the collection.
