Meteorite: natural optical calcite crystal in a clear doubly refracting columnar form from Brazil.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptionally clear freeform of optical calcite fascinates with its striking transparency and fine, shimmering internal structures. The precisely cut, columnar shape enhances the mineral's natural light refraction and makes the interior appear like floating feathers and delicate ice veins. Particularly impressive is the clearly visible double refraction – a characteristic feature of high-quality calcite, which creates a magical optical depth when viewed through the crystal.

The gentle shine of the polished surfaces, combined with the slightly iridescent inclusions, gives this piece a calm, almost ethereal radiance and makes it both decorative and mineralogically appealing.

Optical calcite is traditionally associated with clarity and focus. It is said to help organize thoughts, find inner peace, and promote clear perception – a harmonious complement to its optical purity.
