Desert Rose Selenite is a beautiful, delicate stone that you can find in many different countries around the world. It's also known as Gypsum Rose and Sand Rose.

This type of Selenite is formed through a process involving moisture condensation over hundreds of years. Water, wind, and sand combine to create this unique formation of prism-like shapes with an intricate rose-like formation of crystal clusters that look like rose petals. The color comes from the sand grains embedded throughout the stone.
