One calcite piece can hold a shelf by itself when it is a tall orchid calcite point with a smooth, polished body made for display.
Calcite takes a soft, satiny polish that looks its best under a lamp, and a tower this tall has the height to hold a mantel or the end of a bookshelf on its own. The cut base means it stands upright on its own, so there is no stand to hide. It suits a calcite collector who wants a tall piece in the lineup, or someone setting up a reading nook who would rather have one sizable crystal than a cluster of small ones. Look at the front, back and base photos to see the full color and finish of the stone.
About Calcite
Calcite is calcium carbonate, CaCO3, and it occurs in white, orange, blue, green, yellow, red and colorless forms. It is soft, 3 on the Mohs scale, and cleaves cleanly in three directions. Powdered calcite fizzes in dilute acid, a classic field test. Orchid calcite is a trade name for a color of calcite rather than a separate mineral.
Stone Meaning: Calcite is traditionally associated with clarity and renewal.
