Hello Anthony;
I recently purchased this Celestite. I love using it during my spiritual daily practice, and it is kept on my nightstand beside my bed.
Can you tell me if it is a record keeper specimen? I see the triangle configuration in two places, as well as a double-square shape that is recessed which I am wondering if it is a 'door' specimen?
Thank you.
Best, Kelley Shields
Hello Kelley,
Yes, when I zoom in on this photo I did find one small recessed record keeper triangle – and even the smallest triangle signifies that yes, it really is a record keeper.
I’m not personally seeing the rectangles as being a doorway, possibly more a key. However, this is very subjective. If you have a strong feeling that it is a doorway, then this feeling supersedes my opinion 🙂
Is it possible that a seller could mistake celestite for blue calcite? I bought a few of these when I was doing more angel focused work and didn’t know the properties of either really but I believe this is celestite and they had it marked incorrectly. The other pieces resembled more of a geode looking formation with very defined crystals, one with a yellow spot in it.
Hi Jessa, Thank You for your question and photo – good news, that is definitely Celestite – just a lighter blue hue 🙂
Thank you for the reply, Anthony. As far as I know Angelite is CaSO4, while Celestite is SrSO4, hence heavier. Do you think all the dozens of "celestite" spheres offered in Ebay are empty inside? This would indeed explain a lower Specific Gravity. I have one of them, but I will not break it up to see if its empty inside! I also think its blue calcite.
Hi Jorge,
Aha, I apologize for not being more specific. The geodes are very obviously geodes from the outside. Theyare not the kind that you need to break open to see they are in fact a geode!
I had a quick look at Ebay and I see immediately what you are talking about.
Here is an example link below of a REAL Celestite Geode Sphere.

Here is a link below to a seller selling a Blue Calcite Sphere as being Celestite.

I give the Sellers the benefit of the doubt as English is not their first language. In this case, the Chinese dealer may have swapped some Chinese minerals with a dealer who had Blue Calcite from Madagascar – Who then told the Chinese dealer it was Celestite!
Either way, I hope this has clarified things for you Jorge 🙂
Still I can´t understand why there is not one single massive that is whole sphere of Celestite on the market, why only open geodes. Strange, isn´t it? I was looking for a whole sphere of celestite when I discovered this mess. Your pictures are very helpful as they show clearly the difference in colour.
It is because the Celestite is too brittle. The likely hood of it breaking up when trying to create the sphere would be very high in the extreme – so would not be worth the time and risk to attempt making them on a commercial basis.
Comment
Yes, this too is Celestite
Are there any celestite spheres which are no fake? If you use the data from the sellers (weight and diameter) and calculate specific gravity, you get always 2.7 to 2.9 instead of the expected 3.9 to 4.0. How is this possible? Are they selling calcite, SG of calcite is 2.7?
I would like to have a legit celestite sphere!
Hi Jorge,
The only Celestite Spheres I have ever seen are spheres shaped out of geodes, so it would be hard to measure specific gravity off the weight of them as they are essentially hollow. I have never seen a solid Celestite sphere ever – only the Angelite variety which is the massive “compressed” sort of Celestite. Without seeing an image, I’m going to say that it is entirely likely that yes, they are selling Blue Calcite as Celestite.
