Dessert Rose Model 4

Size: 4.3*3.7*2.8cm

The desert rose is a spectacular mineral formation, which seems to be sculpted by winds and sands. It is composed mainly of gypsum or barite, and its unmistakable appearance — of rosettes with mineral petals — gives it its poetic name.

Origin and formation

Desert rose forms in arid regions, where sulfate-rich groundwater evaporates rapidly, leaving behind gypsum crystals that grow into a rosette, often incorporating sand grains. It is found especially in the deserts of Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Mexico and Arizona.
