This hand-carved Libyan Desert Glass scarab combines the sacred symbolism of ancient Egypt with the cosmic history of a celestial event. The scarab, revered as a symbol of protection, rebirth, and transformation, is crafted from Libyan Desert Glass, a rare and extraordinary material formed over 29 million years ago.
Libyan Desert Glass, with its pale yellow-green hue and embedded meteorite particles, is the result of an asteroid impact that melted the desert sands at the border of modern Egypt and Libya. Its formation required temperatures exceeding 1600° C (2900° F), a feat only achievable through the immense energy of a cosmic collision.
Inspired by the legendary Winged Scarab Pendant of Tutankhamun, this scarab reflects the sacred role of the beetle in Egyptian mythology and the profound connection between Earth and the cosmos. This unique artifact is perfect for collectors, history enthusiasts, and admirers of ancient symbolism.
