Celestial Collector's Set for Starborn Meteorite and Tektite

About this item

• Starborn 6-piece Celestial Collector’s Set, with 3 types of meteorite, 2 types of Tektite and a rare Pseudotektite. Each set of 6 pieces ships individually packaged in protective display cases.
• Includes: 3 different Iron Meteorites - Gibeon, Campo Del Cielo and Agoudal. A meteorite is a piece of an asteroid that falls to earth and impacts the surface. Iron from space (metallic meteorites) was probably the first source of usable iron available to humans before the beginning of the iron age.
• Includes: 2 types of Tektite - Moldavite and Indochinite. True Tektites are glass formations, ejected during meteorite impacts. Moldavite is only found in the Czech Republic, its limited occurrence and intense green color have made it highly valuable and collectible.
• Includes: 1 rare and exotic Pseudotektite called the Pearl of Fire. Also marketed by other companies as Cintamani Stone and Agni Manitite, the Pearl of Fire stones are effectively indiscernible in appearance from true Tektites. Pseudotektites are part of a family of rare natural glasses that includes; Saffordites, Colombianites, Healdsburgites and Amerikanites.
• This is the perfect set for an aspiring collector or astronomer. Each set of six pieces will differ slightly based on natural variations in size and shape, but every set will look similar to the picture shown.
