Crystal pieces and Crystal lamps are naturally formed and carefully extracted; however, they often can have imperfections, inclusions, druzy pockets, what appear to be cracks or roughness, and can have variations in color.  This is to be expected with authentic, natural real crystals and gemstones.  While these may appear to be “imperfections” they are not.  Each of our crystals and gemstones are one of a kind, have a unique story and special character.  We appreciate the difference in each one of our special pieces.  We hand select each of our pieces for you and stand by their quality and authenticity and hope you too appreciate their uniqueness!

 A very common orthorhombic mineral, Calcite is a common element of sedimentary rocks, especially limestone but also found with metamorphic and igneous rocks.  Calcite comes from the German word Calcit, a term that originated from the Latin word for lime, Calx.  Usually, the color is clear to milky white with a transparent yellow tint, but Calcite can also be yellow, red, orange, blue, pink, brown, gray or green.  Due to its widespread availability, calcite is sourced in all locations throughout the world but is commonly produced in the United States, Britain, Belgium, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Peru, Iceland, Romania and Brazil.  

History

Limestone is primarily composed of Calcite, so the uses of Calcite are extremely versatile and have been widely used throughout history .  The Great Pyramids used limestone blocks as the construction for the enormous tombs of the Pharaohs.  The ancient Egyptians carved many items out of the mineral, relating it to their goddess Bast.  It has used throughout all cultures as a sculpting stone.  Even the great Michalangelo used Calcite when forming his sculptures including his famous masterpiece, David.  It was commonly used in many ancient cultures for temple, bathhouses and royalty dwellings in both construction and architecture.

One of the most noteworthy discovers of Calcite is the Iceland Spar.  This transparent variety of calcite was believed to be used by the Vikings for navigation.  The purity of the crystal provided dual images for beams of light that Vikings would rotate until the beams were of equal brightness, giving them a steady point of reference for their voyage. 

During World War II, optical calcite was used for gun sight, bomb sites and anti-aircraft weaponry.  Today, it is used in many applications.  It is commonly used in optical equipment for multiple purposes.  Also, it has a ton of construction benefits as a mix for concrete and cement, a part of Travertine and a cleaning agent for water pollution and soil remediation.  It also has infiltrated the pharmaceutical industry as it is commonly a fractional part of the mixture in many medicinal drugs.
