Selenite Volcano Style Candle Holders

Chiseled, volcano style selenite (satin spar) candle holders. They are stout and heavy but contrastingly ethereal when a candle is lit within. There are small variations in the height and weight of each and they look exceptionally great in pair or sets. 

Selenite is a nearly transparent form of gypsum that forms in sheets. Satin spar is another form of gypsum, chemically identical to selenite but in a more durable, translucent, and chatoyant form. Both are sold almost interchangeably under the name selenite. If your selenite has been carved, shaped, or chiseled it’s technically satin spar. Both are potentially soluble and care should always be taken around water.

Selenite and satin spar are associated with the moon and have a reputation of being master cleansers. They are said to clear away negative energies from their environment and other stones around them. Crystals are often left on selenite “charging plates” or bowls to cleanse and recharge their energies, or on top of the trim around doors to purify the air and energies within.

As a natural mineral, this product may include the beautiful, fabulous inconsistencies, dings, divots, inclusions, vugs, and sparkly bits that nature bestows upon the things that it creates.
