Description from the seller
Exceptional Sericho Pallasite Meteorite Cube - Museum Piece
An extraordinary cubic specimen of Sericho pallasite that captures cosmic beauty in its purest form. This museography piece reveals the internal structure of one of the world’s most sought-after meteorites, offering a translucent window into the formation of our solar system 4.5 billion years ago.
Technical Specifications:
Weight: 631 grams of authentic extraterrestrial material
Dimensions: 55 x 55 x 45 mm - perfect geometry for display
Classification: Pallasite PMG (Pallasite Main Group)
Origin: Sericho, Habaswein, Kenya (discovered 2016)
Professionally polished surfaces on all six faces
Distinctive Features:
Oliveite crystals in pristine condition, with no visible fractures
Iron-nickel metallic matrix with characteristic kamacita-taenite composition
Natural olive presence exceeding 65% of total volume
Striking contrast between deep olive green and the polished silver metal
Rarity and Scientific Value:
Pallasites make up less than 1% of all known meteorites, and Sericho stands out among them for the superior optical quality of its olive crystals. This cube is not merely a collectible object – it is a tangible fragment of the mantle-core of a protoplanet destroyed during the violent formation of our solar system.
Condition and Presentation:
Exceptional preservation with no significant oxidation. Each face has been mirror-polished, revealing the meteorite’s internal architecture. Precise edges and uniform geometry enhance its presence in any premium display case.
Provenance and Authenticity:
Directly acquired from a trusted source with full traceability from the fall site. Includes a certificate of authenticity issued by an internationally recognized meteorite laboratory, guaranteeing origin and classification.
For the Discerning Collector:
This piece represents an exceptional opportunity to possess a museum-quality specimen of one of the most prized pallasite meteorites available on the current market. Its substantial size (631 g), combined with the optical clarity of the olivines and professional six-face polishing, makes it an ideal centerpiece for serious collections.
A cosmic treasure that fuses science, natural art, and absolute rarity.
