Heavy and sold as is, this amethyst cluster comes with calcite crystals among the purple points.
It weighs over 6 pounds, a solid cluster for a mantel, a sideboard or a large shelf, and it has a cut base so it is meant to sit on a flat surface. Please check both photos closely, including the one next to a ruler, to judge its condition before you order. Amethyst is the February birthstone, and a cluster of this weight suits a milestone birthday. Calcite grows alongside the amethyst, and a styled photo shows it on display. This is the exact cluster shown.
It weighs over 6 pounds, about 2.7 kilograms, and the ruler photo shows its size.
Calcite is calcium carbonate, rated 3 on the Mohs scale, and it scratches easily, while amethyst is purple quartz at 7 with no cleavage. Amethyst owes its color to trace iron and natural radiation. A drop of dilute acid makes powdered calcite fizz, a classic test that tells the two apart.
Stone Meaning: Amethyst is traditionally associated with calm and balance.
