Huh. Looks like it’s the lower leaves? Is that right?  
Maybe check with a local plant store?  
Have you been feeding it regularly or semi regularly?  
Good luck! 💚

I’m sorry I can’t help, but I just wanted to say that is a GORGEOUS tree!

It is likely the fact that it may be older leaf- not sure. If it is on the bottom, than it should be ok. Every leaf does eventually!

I rescued a tineke that’s got the same thing on one leaf. He was supremely overwatered (I had to repot asap) and in too much direct sunlight. Maybe this will be helpful? Yours is beautiful.

Can be over or under watering, but if it’s crispy, it’s most likely under watering. They need a lot of light, so I don’t think that would be the issue unless it’s too close to a hot window or grow light.
