You get a big, warm orchid calcite heart here, with orange color swirled through white and black and a flat back that sits solidly on a table, shelf or windowsill.
It was carved and polished by crystal artisans in Brazil, with one rounded side and one flat side, so it lies steady with the rounded side up. It is sold as is because the tip of the heart is chipped. If the color is what draws you, the chip is a small trade for a heart this size. At about 4.5 inches, it fills a hand and reads well from across a room. It makes a thoughtful gift for an autumn birthday or anyone who loves orange stones, and it looks warm on a sunny kitchen windowsill. This is the exact heart shown.
The heart is about 4 by 4.5 by 1.5 inches. Look at the ruler photo for scale.
