Desert Rose History and Uses:

The Desert Rose is also referred to as the Sand Rose, Selenite Rose or Gypsum Rose. Found in dry, desert regions, each one is said to contain a unique spirit guardian. They have traditionally been used as talismans for protection, overcoming phobias, and helping boost self-confidence. Particularly helpful for shy or timid children and teens to help them uncover and confidently express their talents.

Desert Rose Geological Description: 

A variety of gypsum with a hardness of 1.5 – 2, these mineral roses are formed by the forces of wind, water, and pressure in dry, arid regions due to the evaporation of a shallow salt basin. When sand particles become embedded in these basins, the loose sand is trapped in the minerals during the evaporation process and forms rosette-like concretions with unique flower-like crystal structures. Desert roses are found in the Sahara desert, the Southwest of the USA, Australia, Mexico, and Spain.
