Ruler Selenite with an 18th Century Italian Sunray & Baroque Pearls on Lucite

About the Item

Ruler Selenite with an 18th century Italian gold leaf molding and a natural forming baroque pearl on a lucite base. Ruler selenite or "selenite logs" are single, prismatic selenite crystals from Morocco that were formed in extensive beds by the evaporation of ocean brine. This mineral is characterized by a silky, pearly luster called satin spare. It is then adorned with gold leaf wood molding and the baroque pearl which coordinate beautifully with the sleek selenite. The piece is put together by Jean O'Reilly Barlow, the artist and creative director of Interi. The date of manufacture reflects when she created the piece but the Italian fragment sunray is originally 18th century. Interi transforms Italian artifacts and minerals using artistic methods and contemporary interpretations. The ruler selenite has been mounted onto lucite and adorned with the 18th century Italian fragment molding and natural forming baroque pearl to create an organic modern and chic sculptural piece.
