Description: 

Libyan Desert Glass was formed when a meteorite impacted this corner of the Sahara a long time ago. The shock and the heat from the impact turned the sand into lumps of glass. The meteorite has never been found, and might still be hiding under the sand, but the dark streaks found in some pieces of glass might be dust from the meteorite.

A very smooth, translucent, little lump of glass. Displays very nicely on a flat base (one small chip).    

About 36mm wide and 29mm tall.   

Please note: The area of south-west Egypt where Libyan Glass can be found, has now been closed to any exploration by the Egyptian government for the last 4 years, with no change of policy in sight, so our stock cannot be replenish, and is dwindling!.
