Selenite Candle Holder Hamsa Hand

• The flame shows gently through the pale walls, so the holder feels lit from within rather than simply placed around a candle.
• Natural whiter areas and satin-like shine give the crystal a moonlit look, especially in low evening light.
• The Hamsa silhouette brings a sculptural line to the piece, even before the candle is lit.
• Rough edges are part of the character of selenite, adding contrast to the smoother polished top.
• The flat underside helps it sit neatly on a stable surface, ready for a slow dinner, bath-free ritual corner or quiet nightstand.

Made from selenite from Morocco, this piece keeps the crystal’s natural translucence and pale mineral banding. The top is polished to catch the light, while the underside is cut flat for placement. Each holder varies a little in tone and edge texture, which suits the organic nature of the stone.

Place it on a heat-safe, level surface and use a candle that sits securely in the holder without forcing it. Let the wax cool before moving or cleaning the piece, and keep it away from fabrics, draughts and anything that could catch flame.

The Hamsa hand is a familiar symbol across North African, Middle Eastern, Jewish and Islamic visual traditions, often associated with blessing, watchfulness and protection in a symbolic sense. Here, its open-hand form turns a simple candle ritual into something more intentional. Selenite is also used in contemporary crystal practice as a stone associated with clarity, light and the crown chakra, making the piece well suited to a meditation space, altar-style shelf or a quiet corner where objects carry meaning as well as beauty.

Selenite is a very soft form of gypsum, so treat it gently. Keep it dry, as water, damp rooms and humidity can dull, cloud or damage the surface over time. Do not wash or soak it. Clean only when dry, using a soft cloth or brush.

Measures 10 cm wide, 6.5 cm long and 3.5 cm high, with an approximate weight of 550 g. One selenite candle holder is included.

It suits someone who enjoys candlelit evenings, crystal décor, symbolic objects or a small ritual before meditation. The Hamsa shape gives it more meaning than a plain holder, while the translucent stone keeps the mood soft and understated.
