## Description

Selenite Heart - 7-8cm is made from selenite, about 8cm, a smooth, silky-white crystal with a natural fibrous glow.

At around 8cm this is the mid-sized option: big enough to notice on a shelf, small enough for a desk or windowsill. Mid sizes are the most versatile: they hold a bracelet or a handful of tumbles, or sit happily on a bedside table.

This is one of 3 options in the Selenite Heart range; nearby choices include 10 cm, 7-8cm - Mandala Engraved.

Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum, soft enough to scratch with a fingernail, typically pearly white with a silky sheen. It measures 2 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural gypsum.

The Cave of the Crystals in Naica, Mexico, holds selenite beams over 10 metres long.

Size: approximately 8cm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.
