Calcite Iceland Spar Optical Crystal – Natural Double Refraction Mineral – Clarity & Optical Grade – COA Included

£18.00

Presenting a 100% genuine Calcite Iceland Spar Optical Crystal, known for its extraordinary clarity and unique optical properties, including double refraction. This remarkable crystal is highly prized by collectors, educators, and crystal healers alike.

The photo shows the exact specimen you will receive, carefully selected for its pristine clarity, form, and powerful energetic qualities.

Geological Background: Iceland Spar is a transparent variety of Calcite (CaCO₃) that is well known for exhibiting birefringence (double refraction)—a property where images appear doubled when viewed through the crystal. Historically sourced from Iceland, this crystal has been crucial in the development of optical instruments and was once used by Vikings as a navigation aid (Sunstone) due to its ability to polarise light.

Formed in hydrothermal and sedimentary environments, these crystals are typically found in cavities or fractures in limestone and dolomite.

  • Chemical Formula: CaCO₃
  • Crystal System: Trigonal
  • Hardness: 3 on the Mohs scale
  • Lustre: Vitreous
  • Transparency: Transparent (optical grade)
  • Optical Property: Birefringent (double refracting)
  • Colour: Colourless to clear

Crystal Type & Species:

  • Type: Carbonate Mineral
  • Species: Calcite
  • Variety: Iceland Spar (Optical Calcite)

Metaphysical Properties: Optical Calcite (Iceland Spar) is believed to enhance clarity, insight, and focus, making it a popular tool for meditation, manifestation, and energy work. It is often associated with the Third Eye and Crown Chakras, helping to clear stagnant energy and sharpen mental perception. It’s also said to amplify and cleanse other crystals when used in a crystal grid or healing layout.

Additional Details:

  • All of our Crystals are 100% Genuine Specimens & come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
  • Sizing: Please refer to the photo with the 1cm cube/scale rule for accurate size.
  • This is a unique, carefully chosen specimen, ideal for use in optical demonstrations, metaphysical practice, or as a collectible mineral piece.

Bring clarity into your life—both visually and spiritually—with this stunning Calcite Iceland Spar Optical Crystal.
