Silver Plated Selenite Pendant (Large)

Selenite is a soft, translucent variety of gypsum traditionally associated with cleansing, clarity, and calm. This large pendant sets a natural bar of milky-white selenite in bright silver-plated edging, its soft inner glow showing through a cool-toned metal frame ready to hang on a chain.

Quick facts

Meaning & history

Selenite takes its name from Selene, the Greek moon goddess, a nod to its pale, glowing look. In crystal tradition it's associated with cleansing and clarity, often linked to the Crown chakra. As a pendant, it turns a stone more commonly seen in slab or wand form into something wearable, a quiet way to keep its traditional meaning close throughout the day. It fits alongside pieces gathered for balance and wellness or the shop's wider jewelry collection.

How to wear it

This pendant comes without a chain, so you can choose whichever length and style suits your taste, from a simple cord to a finer silver chain that echoes the plating. Because selenite is soft and water-sensitive, treat it as a piece to wear for the day rather than around the clock through showers or workouts. Each pendant uses a natural selenite bar, so tone and translucency will vary slightly from piece to piece.

Care & cleansing

Selenite is water-soluble, so this pendant should never get wet — avoid showering, swimming, or washing your hands while wearing it, since water exposure can dull, pit, or dissolve the stone over time. Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth after wearing, and store it in a pouch or dish away from humidity rather than a bathroom shelf. Handle it gently, since selenite is quite soft (Mohs 2) and can scratch or chip against harder surfaces, and avoid harsh chemicals that could also dull the silver plating.
