{"product_id":"duckbill-selenite","title":"Duckbill Selenite","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"1102\" data-end=\"1521\"\u003eThis duckbill selenite specimen forms a dense, radiating cluster of tabular crystals, each blade extending outward in layered, geometric growth. The crystals display soft honeyed tones with areas of translucency, allowing light to pass through and highlight the internal structure. The characteristic “duckbill” shape comes from twinned crystal growth, creating the sculptural, fan-like forms seen throughout the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1523\" data-end=\"1884\"\u003eThis material is sourced from the Red River Floodway in Manitoba, Canada, one of the most well-known and celebrated localities for this style of selenite. This mine is now closed. Formed within ancient glacial lake clays from Lake Agassiz, these crystals developed slowly in soft sediment, allowing them to grow freely into complete, undamaged clusters with distinctive twinning habits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1886\" data-end=\"2089\"\u003eSelenite is often associated with clarity and energetic cleansing. Its translucent structure and soft glow create a sense of openness in a space, while its natural geometry offers strong visual presence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2091\" data-end=\"2105\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2091\" data-end=\"2105\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2107\" data-end=\"2124\"\u003eWeight: 390g, 3x4 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2126\" data-end=\"2137\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2126\" data-end=\"2137\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2139\" data-end=\"2445\"\u003eMineral: Selenite (gypsum)\u003cbr data-start=\"2165\" data-end=\"2168\"\u003eLocality: Red River Floodway, Manitoba, Canada\u003cbr data-start=\"2214\" data-end=\"2217\"\u003eFormation: Twinned tabular crystals (“duckbill”)\u003cbr data-start=\"2265\" data-end=\"2268\"\u003eColour: Pale gold to translucent cream\u003cbr data-start=\"2306\" data-end=\"2309\"\u003eFinish: Natural, untreated specimen\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atelier Lithic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47681926004948,"sku":null,"price":1100.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9021\/0260\/files\/54F1B85D-C415-40E2-B150-1CBDD2014BAB_1_201_a.heic?v=1773981196","url":"https:\/\/www.atelierlithic.com\/products\/duckbill-selenite","provider":"Atelier Lithic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
