What it is
Flat Bar Charging Plate 15cm - plain is made from selenite, about 15cm, a soft, silky-white crystal with a natural fibrous glow.
A plain, unadorned finish keeps the focus on the material and the sound or shape itself.
At around 15cm this is the large, statement option: a centrepiece for a dresser, altar or sound space. Large pieces hold a whole collection of stones or jewellery and give the deepest, fullest presence in a room.

Materials and size
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 15cm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.
Traditional uses
Selenite takes its name from Selene, Greek goddess of the moon, because of its pearly sheen. Selenite is named after Selene, the Greek goddess of the moon. In modern practice selenite plates and bowls are used to 'charge' or cleanse other crystals placed on them. In modern crystal tradition selenite is linked with the crown chakra and with Taurus and Cancer. These are traditions and beliefs, described for interest, not health or medical claims.
How to use it
- Use it as a bright, moonlike accent on an altar or bedside table.
- Rest other crystals or jewellery on it overnight as a cleansing ritual.
- It pairs traditionally with any crystal you want to rest on it.
- Dressing-table idea: use it as a landing place for jewellery so pieces aren't scattered.
- Altar idea: its pearly white suits a moon altar beside a candle and a small bowl of water (kept well apart).
- Gifting idea: selenite is lightweight and inexpensive to post, so it makes an easy gift for a crystal-loving friend.
Care
- It is very fine; handle softly and keep away from damp rooms.
Who it suits
A good choice for someone who already has crystals and wants somewhere to rest them. At £5.52 it also works as a small add-on gift or stocking filler.
