Collection: Iceland Spart
Iceland spar is an extremely transparent variety of calcite, famous for its strong double refraction properties. As a result, the outlines of objects seen through this crystal can appear double, creating a unique optical illusion. Historical sources mention that the Vikings may have used this crystal to detect a “sunstone”, helping to determine the position of the sun in cloudy weather. In an esoteric context, Iceland spar is considered a symbol of mental clarity, awareness and seeing “beyond the visible”.
Main properties and formation
- Calcite variation: Due to its high purity and transparency.
- Double fracture: A unique optical property that helps demonstrate light scattering.
- Mostly transparent: Sometimes it has barely visible nebulae or "clouds".
Metaphysical properties
- Clarity of mind: "Trembling" double vision by perceiving the world from multiple perspectives.
- Awareness building: It is believed to help maintain objectivity.
- Open awareness: An invitation to look deeper than what we see on the surface.
Spiritual benefits
- Intellect growth: Encourages thinking about the essence of phenomena.
- Seeing hidden opportunities: A double break symbolizes an unexpected way out of routine.
Whether Iceland spar is displayed as an optical rarity or used in meditation, this exceptionally clear calcite can open up new angles of thought. Let its double refraction remind us that true perception of the world rarely fits into a single channel of “vision.”
