Alabaster, a soft, translucent form of gypsum (or sometimes calcite), has been prized for sculpture since ancient times due to its workability and luminous finish. It allows for intricate details without requiring hard tools, making it ideal for indoor figures, reliefs, and decorative pieces. Historically, it was used in Egypt, Mesopotamia, and later in medieval Europe for religious icons. Today, it's popular in modern and Native American art for its warm glow and color variations (white, orange, green).
