天然セレナイト結晶タワー Freeform - Height: 16.5 cm - Width: 6.5 cm- 1200 g - (3)

Set of 3 Natural Selenite Crystal Towers – Translucent White Gypsum Formations – Largest 16.5 cm An elegant collection of three natural selenite crystal towers, each displaying the mineral's characteristic fibrous structure, delicate translucency, and beautiful pearly-white lustre. These remarkable specimens feature distinctive stepped formations, with multiple layers rising progressively towards irregular, pointed summits. Their architectural silhouettes resemble miniature crystalline skyscrapers or natural ice formations, creating a fascinating combination of geometric structure and organic beauty. The surfaces reveal exceptionally fine vertical striations, characteristic of fibrous gypsum, which reflect light with a soft, silky sheen. Depending on the viewing angle and lighting conditions, the crystals display subtle variations of translucent white, silvery grey, and delicate ivory tones. Each tower has its own individual structure and personality. The largest specimen stands out for its impressive height and slender, tiered formation, while the two smaller pieces display more compact silhouettes with pronounced crystalline steps and intricate surface details. The specimens retain their natural fibrous texture, with irregular edges and delicate cleavage surfaces that highlight the mineral's unique crystalline character. Displayed together, the three towers create a harmonious mineral composition, with their different heights producing an attractive architectural arrangement. They are equally appealing as individual specimens, making them suitable for mineral collections, cabinets of curiosities, contemporary interiors, or decorative displays. Selenite is a crystalline variety of gypsum, a mineral appreciated for its remarkable ability to transmit and diffuse light through its parallel fibrous structure. Its characteristic satin-like reflections give these specimens an almost ethereal appearance. Dimensions: Largest tower: 16.5 × 6.5 × 6 cm Medium tower: 10.4 × 5.2 × 4.9 cm Smallest tower: 9.6 × 4.2 × 4 cm A beautiful trio of natural mineral sculptures, combining crystalline elegance, fascinating textures, and timeless decorative appeal.
