Natural Selenite Tower — 10 cm
This 10 cm natural selenite tower has a rawer, less polished character than the pointed varieties. The surface features the soft, fibrous structure that is one of selenite’s most distinctive traits. It originates from the highlands of Morocco, where the gypsum-based crystal structure formed over millions of years. At this larger size it makes a striking desk decoration, and grouped with other crystals it creates a truly impressive display.

Characteristics
The 10 cm selenite tower is the most popular medium size for those who want a more substantial visual impact without sacrificing too much space. The fibrous, silky texture is especially effective at this size: in side-lighting, the parallel crystal fibres shimmer and radiate an inner glow.
How to Use
Place it on a shelf, windowsill, meditation corner, or between books. Grouped with other crystals — such as an amethyst druse or obsidian sphere — it creates a striking desktop composition. Its size and weight also make it comfortable to hold during meditation.
Why Choose This?
The 10 cm tower embodies balance: not too small and not too large. It holds its own as a standalone decoration, but also works excellently as part of a group composition. The distinctive quality of Moroccan selenite is evident in its white, fine-fibrous structure.
Tips
- Placed on an LED base, it can be illuminated from within, creating a unique night-light effect.
- Do not place it in a damp bathroom or humid room, as selenite is sensitive to moisture.
- If dust settles on it, gently brush it off with a dry brush.
- Placing selenite towers of different heights side by side creates visually interesting arrangements.
