Scale Calcite with Hematite Coating

£22.00
Description

This piece features a striking arrangement of elongated calcite points with a natural hematite coating.

The contrast between the pale calcite and the deep red, textured hematite creates a bold and earthy appearance.

The structure has a sculptural, almost directional feel, with crystals extending outward to create depth and movement.

A visually strong specimen - ideal for collectors or as a statement display piece.
Geological Specifications

Mineral: Scalenohedral (Dogtooth) Calcite with Hematite coating
Origin: China

This specimen features scalenohedral calcite, commonly known as dogtooth calcite, characterised by its elongated, pointed crystal formations.

The calcite is partially coated with hematite (iron oxide), giving the piece its rich red to orange tones and textured surface.

The formation shows multiple stages of crystal growth, with hematite developing over the calcite as iron-rich mineral solutions interacted with the crystal during formation.

This combination creates strong visual contrast between the lighter calcite and the darker, earthy hematite coating.

Each piece is unique, with natural variation in structure, coverage and colour
Metaphysical Properties

Calcite is often associated with:

• Energy amplification
• Clarity and focus
• Clearing stagnant energy
• Supporting growth

With hematite present:

• Grounding and protection
• Strength and resilience
• Stability and balance

This piece carries a steady, grounding energy while still supporting clarity and forward movement.

As always, metaphysical properties are offered as spiritual support and not as medical advice.
