Bright citrus orange Spessartine crystal with equant form and gem zones. There is a complete crystal with only minor edge chipping. This is a good one, with no black inclusions that negatively affect most of these. The intensity of color and gem zones are even more apparent with backlighting. I understand these are no longer being found.
