Faceted Libyan Desert Glass Gemstone – 12 Carat Hand-Cut Tektite

This faceted Libyan Desert Glass gemstone is a dazzling example of natural beauty shaped by cosmic events. Carefully faceted to enhance its brilliance, this gemstone highlights the pale yellow-green hue of Libyan Desert Glass, a rare material formed approximately 29 million years ago during a massive asteroid or comet impact.

Libyan Desert Glass is a geological marvel, created when the extreme heat of a cosmic collision—exceeding 1600° C (2900° F)—melted desert sands at the modern border of Egypt and Libya. With embedded meteorite particles, this gemstone is both a geological wonder and a tangible connection to the cosmos.

Ideal for collectors, gemstone enthusiasts, or as a unique centerpiece for custom jewelry, this gemstone embodies the timeless elegance of nature and the mysteries of the universe.
