Honey Calcite Pakistan Stone - Tumbled

This listing is for a tumbled stone, Honey Calcite Pakistan Stone - Tumbled (shop SKU HSCHP), which you can order online or see in the store.

Calcite is calcium carbonate, a soft mineral that can form in many colors and crystal habits, including columnar 'vortex' shapes. Because it is soft, it is best kept dry and handled gently.

Tumbled stones are polished in a drum, which softens sharp edges and brings out color. Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed. The title gives the origin as Pakistan.
