A gel sculpture the first of its kind, derived from a simple organic salt has been demonstrated to be stable for months. The same gel also showed remarkable load‐bearing and self‐healing properties. A crystal engineering approach was adopted to discover such wonderful soft material. For more details, see the Full Paper by P. Dastidar et al. on page 8057 ff.
