Moonlight in a milky oval
The Selenite palm has a rounded oval outline and a gently domed surface, milky white with pale cream tones gathering near the edges. Fine, closely spaced streaks cross its smooth-looking surface, giving the soft, silky sheen a delicate sense of direction.
Selenite takes its name from Selene, the Greek moon goddess, a nod to the pale, moon-like reflection it can show. Here, a bright reflected patch catches the eye against the softer sheen, like a small opening in a bank of cloud.
Its pebble-like shape invites a tiny imagined shoreline: a sheltered cove beneath a scattering of stars, with one pale curve of light on the water. Those fine parallel streaks become the smallest ripples, a moonlit tide traced in white.
