Tiny Gypsum crystal cluster Sand/Desert Rose origins from North Africa
lovey colour and unusual shape, small crystalline making a cornflake like formation.
height 7 x width 13 x depth 8.5 cm
A desert rose is a crystal formation that forms over time in arid, sandy conditions when wind blows sand over gypsum aggregates. The gypsum hardens into individual "petals" that form a rosette shape similar to a rose blossom.
Desert roses are also known as sand roses, Sahara roses, rose rocks, selenite roses, gypsum roses, and baryte roses.
