About this specimen
Cut from a geode and shaped into a heart, this Madagascan celestite keeps its outer wall as a polished pale grey-blue shell and gives the entire open face over to crystals. The largest sits just off centre — a blocky, water-blue individual with a flat-topped termination about the width of a thumbnail — and dozens of smaller crystals ring it, running from colourless through to a soft cornflower.
Celestite is strontium sulphate, SrSO4: orthorhombic, Mohs 3–3.5, soft enough that the polished rim will scuff against a harder stone and the crystal faces should never meet a gritty cloth. Malagasy celestite grows in cavities within sedimentary rock, and the blue belongs to the crystals themselves rather than to any treatment. Long spells in direct sun can pale it, so give it a shaded shelf.
It measures 15.2 × 7.6 × 10.2 cm and weighs 1,565 g — just over 1.5 kg, and it fills a palm, shown held against a plain grey ground with no stand. The heart in these photographs is the heart that will arrive.
