Aesthetical, X-Large Brazilian Scalenohedral Golden Calcite on Purple Amethyst
A true sculptural gem discovered in 2020, this Calcite specimen ranks among the finest examples ever found in Ametista do Sul. The eight-inch Calcite crystal formed flawlessly, “hugged” by vibrant purple Amethyst that provides contrast and makes it pop with brilliant luster. Undoubtedly a natural work of art, this piece stands out as a rare and exceptional Calcite specimen.
While many Calcite pieces have emerged since the 1970s, when Amethyst mining began, this treasure is distinguished by its vivid golden color and a doubly-terminated crystal perched on an all-natural, undamaged matrix. The crystal is Scalenohedral, featuring a sharp and balanced twin plane at its center.
In pristine condition, the Calcite showcases a complex termination with fully intact surfaces—another rarity for a specimen of this size. The Amethyst cluster matrix forms a natural frame, with flawlessly crystallized and naturally polished points that highlight the Calcite’s luster.
All-natural and pristine, the geode and Calcite formation developed over millions of years in perfect harmony, making it a unique and irreplaceable work of natural art. Please check the pictures for more details, and feel free to message us if you have any questions or special requests. 🤍
