Roughly 15cm tall for the crystal itself. Attached to a metal & concrete base which has been painted brown. This piece was part of the beloved collection of a life-long mineral collector who has sadly passed on. Instead of the much more common carved points, this is a natural point, formed into this shape by nature herself!
Calcite is a carbonate mineral found in limestone, with various uses in optics, construction, and agriculture. It has many crystallographic forms and is transparent to opaque. Calcite can form through various pathways, including the crystallization of amorphous calcium carbonate. Calcite has the ability to cleanse and amplify energy, remove stagnant energy within the body, boost memory, and accelerate spiritual development. It also has physical benefits, such as calcium uptake in bones, dissolving calcification, and fortifying the immune system.
