This is a single AAA grade piece of fibrous gypsum at just over two pounds, noticeably thicker through the body than a typical slab, which lets more of the internal fiber structure show when light hits it. The faces are natural; only the base is cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSelenite is crystalline gypsum, calcium sulfate dihydrate, formed where ancient saline waters evaporated and left soft fibrous crystal beds behind. New Mexico sits over one of the significant North American gypsum deposits. At Mohs 2 the material is soft enough to scratch with a fingernail and is water-soluble, so it stays a dry-care display piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe added thickness gives this one more presence on a shelf, mantel, or console than the thinner slabs, while still reading as raw material. Selenite is traditionally associated with cleansing and clear space. This is the exact piece pictured, photographed in house.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beyond Bohemian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51121584865316,"sku":"IND-SEL-SLB-0002","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/6107\/9588\/files\/selenite-raw-crystal-standing-slab-aaa-new-mexico-2-08lb-01.png?v=1784582080","url":"https:\/\/beyondbohemian.com\/products\/selenite-raw-crystal-standing-slab-aaa-new-mexico-2-08lb","provider":"Beyond Bohemian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
