What is Selenite?
Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum. Strictly, "selenite" means clear crystals, while the fibrous, silky-white material sold as towers, wands, lamps and charging plates is satin spar — both are the same mineral.
Morocco is the main source of satin spar for décor. Gypsum is very soft and dissolves slowly in water, so it should always be kept dry.
