Hand-Carved Libyan Desert Glass Scarab – 386 Carat Egyptian Symbol of Protection
This hand-carved Libyan Desert Glass scarab is a stunning artifact combining ancient Egyptian symbolism with cosmic origins. Crafted from Libyan Desert Glass, this scarab pays homage to the sacred beetle, a timeless emblem of protection, rebirth, and transformation in Egyptian mythology.
Libyan Desert Glass, formed approximately 29 million years ago, is a rare tektite created by the immense heat of an asteroid impact in the Libyan Desert at the border of modern Egypt and Libya. Revered for its pale greenish-yellow hue and extraordinary origins, this material has a deep connection to ancient Egypt. Its celestial origins are evidenced by embedded meteorite particles, making it a true marvel of nature.
This scarab draws inspiration from the Winged Scarab Pendant of Tutankhamun, where a scarab carved from Libyan Desert Glass was prominently featured. As a representation of the god Ra, this sacred symbol carries profound historical and cultural significance.
