Description
These hand-carved Pink Mangano Calcite spheres are luminous artifacts shaped by careful craftsmanship. In natural light, each sphere displays soft blush to pale pink tones with gentle translucence and subtle internal clouding.
When viewed under ultraviolet light, these spheres reveal a striking transformation. The calm pink surface gives way to an intense, glowing pink fluorescence—a vivid response that feels almost internal, as though the stone itself is lit from within. This contrast between daylight subtlety and UV brilliance adds a compelling, layered dimension that rewards closer exploration.
Dimensions & Weight
You will receive one crystal sphere measuring approximately 0.75”-1” in diameter and weighing approximately 35g-45g.
Collector’s Notes
Fluorescent Mangano Calcite is highly regarded by collectors for both its visual softness in daylight and its dramatic UV reaction. Hand-carved examples are especially appealing, as they retain natural variations, inclusions, and tonal shifts that speak to authenticity and artisan work. These spheres balance delicacy and presence, making them well suited for collectors who appreciate understated beauty paired with mineralogical interest.
These spheres fluoresce brightly under ultraviolet light, typically responding best to longwave UV (365 nm). The vivid glow is a natural property of Mangano Calcite and is not enhanced or treated.
Highlights
Hand-carved and polished from natural Pink Mangano Calcite
Soft pink coloration with gentle translucence in natural light
Strong fluorescent reaction under UV light
Individually unique internal features and surface nuances
Each sphere is one of a kind
Metaphysical Properties
Pink Mangano Calcite is often associated with emotional soothing, compassion, and heart-centered calm. Its gentle daytime presence paired with its radiant UV response reflects a balance between softness and inner strength, making these spheres a thoughtful addition to reflective or healing-focused spaces.
Mineralogy
Mangano Calcite is a manganese-bearing variety of calcite composed of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃). The presence of manganese gives rise to its pink coloration and is also responsible for its characteristic fluorescence. Calcite crystallizes in the trigonal system and is well suited to careful hand carving due to its relative softness.
Dimensions & Weight
Please refer to the individual selection for exact measurements and weight, as each hand-carved sphere varies slightly.
