Good to know: Selenite is a soft stone that does not tolerate water or humidity: it can be scratched with a fingernail, becomes dull and may crumble if it gets wet. Never wash it and do not keep it in a bathroom.
Natural piece: each one is unique, and the photo shows an example from the series, not the one you will receive.
About this stone
A transparent to pearly white variety of gypsum (hydrated calcium sulphate), in fibrous crystals or blades. The striations running along the piece are natural. The small bowl is cut with six faces, then polished.
These pieces come from Morocco; selenite is also found in Mexico, Spain and the United States.

How to use it
For holding stones, dry jewellery or LED candles. No water, no food, no open flame unless it is in glass.
Care
Clean it dry, with a soft brush, a dry cloth or an air blower. Never use water, damp wipes or household products: selenite slowly dissolves on contact with water. Keep it away from moisture, on a stable surface; it is soft, so avoid knocks and rubbing.
Nature of the stone and photos
A natural stone is unique: its colour, veining, inclusions and size vary from one piece to another. The photos are a guide only.
Some commercially sold stones are heated, dyed or stabilised with resin. Where this is the case, it is stated on the product page. If in doubt, write to us before buying.

Symbolism and tradition
Its name comes from Selene, the Greek word for the moon. In the tradition of stones, selenite is the stone of light and clarity: it is placed close by for a moment of calm, on an altar or in a meditation corner. This is symbolism, not a promise of results.
