Selenite bowl or dish from Morocco.

Selenite is a needle/fibrous variety of gypsum. Selenite is very soft and can already be scratched with the nail, Due to its low hardness and popularity, Selenite is therefore processed into many products including this one. The origin of the name Selenite comes from the name 'Selene', the Greek goddess of the moon. In fact, when the quality is good, Selenite has a beautiful moon-like reflection. This is not the only name Selenite has, as Satinspar is a common synonym for Selenite. Our Selenite is of very good quality and we always have various Selenite products in stock!
