How do I care for my Selenite products?
Selenite is extremely fragile and relatively easy to scratch and should be handled with care.
As selenite is water soluble, using it around water for prolonged periods is not a great idea as this could lead to deterioration.Clean your Selenite products and keep them dust free by simply wiping/dusting with a soft cloth. The use of abrasive cleaners is not recommended.
Keep selenite out of direct prolonged sunlight, as this exposure can cause loss of luster.
