Natural Green Calcite beads.
Green Calcite is a calcium carbonate mineral known for its soft, soothing earthy tones and subtle bands of cream, sage, and honey. It forms in sedimentary environments where mineral-rich groundwater precipitates calcite layer by layer, often within limestone cavities or ancient seabed deposits. Loved for its soft, soothing color, this stone brings a grounded, natural feel to any design.

Amazing banding and color range. I grabbed these because I felt like for some reason my hands enjoyed the feel of malas made with softer stones, and calcite is down near the softest. Since making the mala my feelings were confirmed, my hands love flicking these through my fingers. They're amazingly beautiful. This photo does them no justice - but neither do the photos on the Tejas site. These are just so beautiful and varied, both subtle and brash at the same time.
These beads are from Tejas, as are any beads I use these days because Tejas is fast and I don't need to worry about bead quality. The findings and guru bead are from various places around the internet.
These beads are so much prettier than the picture. Beautiful banding, will add a subtle elegance to my nest project. Tejas for the win again!
