Pistachio Calcite Obelisk
Pistachio Calcite Obelisk
Description
Description
A tall, tapering obelisk cut from pistachio calcite — a soft, sea-green translucent stone with a gentle waxy lustre and subtle internal banding visible when held to light. The obelisk form draws the eye up the full length of the piece, letting the pale green colour read as a calm, continuous wash from base to point.
Pistachio calcite is a trade name for a distinctive pale green calcite sourced primarily from Pakistan, prized for its soft, uniform colour and translucency — a gentler, more muted green than typical green calcite, which has made it increasingly popular for display and jewellery use alike.
Calcite is traditionally associated with calm, emotional renewal, and growth, believed to clear stagnant energy and support a fresh, settled state of mind.

Note
All crystals and ceramic works offered by Atelier Lithic are inherently unique. Variations in size, colour, surface texture, and form are natural and should be expected.
Crystals are natural materials formed in the earth and may include surface irregularities such as natural fissures, internal veils, growth marks, contact points from where the crystal was attached to the host rock, or areas where the specimen was mined or extracted. These features are part of the crystal’s natural formation and are not considered defects. Defects are disclosed within the item description.
For crystals:
- When a listing includes numbered options (for example, 001, 002, etc.), each number corresponds to a specific crystal shown in the photos. Selecting a number means you will receive that exact crystal.
- When a crystal is shown as a group or range and sold as a quantity of one without numbered options, the images represent examples of what is available. You will receive one crystal, selected from the group, with natural variation.
For ceramics:
- All ceramic pieces are one of a kind. Unless otherwise stated, you will receive the exact piece shown in the listing photos.
