A transparent, pale yellow (triphane) spodumene crystal associated with dark orange spessartine. The spodumene is glassy, nearly complete all around (one termination is broken) and displays bright orange fluorescence under longwave UV (blacklight). The spessartines reach 4 mm and are translucent to transparent. Interesting association. Overall condition is very nice.
