Properties of the Calcite Tumbled Sphere at a glance

Calcite is a calcium carbonate mineral with a Mohs hardness of 3 and occurs in a variety of colors – from clear white to soft honey yellow to gentle orange or green. In the tumbling process, the stone's natural raw form is smoothed and polished through mechanical tumbling, resulting in a pleasantly smooth, spherical surface that beautifully showcases the mineral's inner color structure.

Care and handling of your calcite sphere

Since calcite, with a Mohs hardness of 3, is among the softer minerals, it is recommended not to store the sphere together with harder stones and to avoid impacts. A slightly dampened soft cloth is sufficient for cleaning. Important: Calcite is sensitive to acids – vinegar or citric acid-based cleaning agents should absolutely be avoided, as they can damage the surface. Prolonged soaking in water is also not recommended. Indirect sunlight can gently clean the stone and enhance its warm radiance.

Energetic meaning – how the calcite sphere is said to support
