Selenite Gemstone Beads and Shapes

Selenite is a crystal formed from the mineral gypsum, which comes in many forms and color variations, but has been used historically to describe the transparent variety. Our strands, cut as rounds are somewhat opaque and powerfully radiant -- fitting since its name originates from the Greek word for "moon," an allusion to the moon-like white reflections of the mineral or to the quality of the light transmitted from the stone.
