Blue Aragonite (Caribbean Calcite) Tower #2 — 265 g (150 × 30 × 30 mm / 5.9 × 1.2 × 1.2 in)

Product Description

Introduction

This 265 g slim tower showcases the serene beauty of Pakistan’s 2019 discovery, often marketed as Caribbean Calcite but increasingly recognized as blue aragonite intergrown with aragonite banding. Its tall, elegant form highlights flowing aqua hues alongside sandy inclusions, evoking the calm of waves meeting shorelines.

Lightweight yet visually commanding, this tower is ideal for shelves, meditation spaces, or as a centerpiece in a crystal grid.

Geological Details

While known in the trade as Caribbean Calcite, testing shows the blue zones are aragonite-dominant. Both calcite and aragonite are CaCO₃ polymorphs in the carbonate mineral class. Calcite crystallizes in the trigonal system, while aragonite forms in the orthorhombic system. Their layered deposition produces the striking aqua-and-beige bands characteristic of this material.

First entering the market in 2019, this Pakistani find is geologically young and remains limited to a single-source locality. Natural cavities in the tower provide insight into its growth history and emphasize its authenticity.

Aesthetic Appeal

Soft aqua-blue tones flow seamlessly across warm beige layers, creating a shoreline-inspired palette. The elongated cut enhances its graceful vertical presence, while natural cavities and textures add depth and interest. A polished finish enhances the shimmer, shifting subtly with the light.

Metaphysical Properties

Blue Aragonite is associated with soothing emotional energy, promoting calm communication, and easing stress. The beige aragonite provides grounding stability, while minor calcite intergrowths amplify clarity and positivity. Together, this tower offers a serene and stabilizing presence ideal for meditation and relaxation.

Rarity

Sourced exclusively from Pakistan and available for only a few years, this material remains rare. Towers with slim, balanced proportions and strong blue banding are especially desirable and increasingly difficult to obtain.

Why You Will Love This

Elegant, soothing, and collectible, this slim tower embodies the oceanic beauty of blue aragonite-rich Caribbean Calcite. It’s versatile enough for décor, meditation, or collection display, offering both visual charm and calming resonance.
