If your space leans warm, with wood, leather and brass, caramel calcite fits right in.
The polish shows off the warm caramel color, and the stone is nearly as tall as it is long, so it has a chunky, sculptural profile rather than a flat one. It is heavy for its size, which lets it double as a paperweight on a desk or a bookend for a few small books. It suits someone building a collection of calcites in different colors, or anyone who wants a natural stone that looks earthy rather than flashy. For a gift, it pairs well with a plant or a candle for a new office.
About Calcite
Calcite is calcium carbonate, and it rates 3 on the Mohs scale, so it scratches more easily than quartz. It comes in a wide range of colors, from white and clear to orange, yellow, green and blue, and it splits cleanly along three cleavage directions. Calcite fizzes in dilute acid, a quick test geologists use to identify it.
Stone Meaning: Caramel calcite is traditionally associated with change and focus.
