'Caribbean Calcite' Tumblestones
'Caribbean Calcite' Tumblestones
Tumblestones or tumbled stones have been tumbled with grit in a large tumbling machine to create a polished surface that is pleasant to hold and is also good for reflecting the colour of the stone. They are a great, inexpensive way to get to know crystals and to start building your collection. They are also perfect tools for healing and gridmaking.
If you purchase a pair or grid set, each is individually handpicked with great care for balance and coherence. If you order multiple singles, we cannot always guarantee to have enough stock to make up a balanced pair or set, but we will do our best.
These tumblestones are our 'standard stock' and we usually have many available. They all pass Sue's quality test, but since they are natural stones there will be some variation in appearance. You may not receive the item in the photograph.
‘Caribbean Calcite’ is a new find (2019) from Pakistan. It is a combination of blue Calcite and white/cream/brown Aragonite. It is relatively expensive because, to date, this is the only known source.
Clearly the name has been chosen to describe the lovely sea blue colour, which is similar to Larimar and Hemimorphite. There are often cracks and holes filled with lovely druzy material.
Caribbean Calcite has an immediate clearing and cleansing effect that is freeing and uplifting. It feels very airy and light. When compared with Larimar, which is similar in colour, it is like sea spray to Larimar’s ocean waters. It has a softly reassuring and nurturing quality. It’s primary effect is to relieve the mind of overthinking, anxiety, worry, stress thereby creating space to expand spiritually and hear the voice of our higher selves.
