Selenite is fibrous gypsum, and this broad panel retains its natural broken upper edge with visible terminations. The exact piece pictured measures 9.83" L x 0.74" W x 7.15" H at Mohs 2, fully natural and untreated. A favorite cleansing stone for consoles.
Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum, laid down where ancient salt water evaporated and left soft fibrous beds behind. It is named after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon, for the way light travels along the fiber.
This piece is raw. Only the base is cut flat so it stands on its own. The top edge is left as it broke, with the crystal terminations still visible. No stand needed and none included.
It comes from New Mexico, USA, which sits over one of the major North American gypsum deposits.
Selenite is traditionally worked with for cleansing and for clearing a space rather than for a specific outcome. It is linked to the crown chakra, and the association leans toward openness and quiet rather than intensity.
If that resonates, a slab this wide is usually treated as the anchor of a room rather than a piece you move around.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
A starting place for your own quiet practice.
