A selenite wand worked from a single blade of the stone, tapering to a point at both ends. Selenite forms in layers, and that shows across the surface as lengthwise lines and soft step-like ridges, so the light runs along the piece rather than sparkling off it. The colour is a bright milky white, and the thinner parts near the tip let light through.
Selenite is a soft stone, and this one is a piece to hold rather than to stand up. It's kept for its clear energy, and it's light in the hand.
Condition: There is a small amount of chipping to both ends, a few flakes lost from the point, and from the base where the layers have parted. It's stable and holds together well, but it's there, so I'd rather you knew before you buy. This is why it's reduced from £10 to £5.
Size: 16cm long.
Care: Keep it dry. Selenite is water-soluble, so don't wash it and don't leave it somewhere damp. A soft dry cloth is all it needs. Handle gently at the chipped ends.
