A pair of large (up to 2.5 cm) Villiaumite crystals nestled beautifully in a phonolite (a rare volcanic rock) pocket. The Villiaumites are gemmy and have an excellent, uniform orange color. The luster is also excellent. The crystal in the core of the pocket shows natural faces, no cleaves. Ex. Charlie Key Collection.
