Description from the seller

Not all guests arrive by invitation, and this one in particular showed up without knocking… a few thousand years ago! Expelled from the incandescent depths of a star, he traveled for ages through interplanetary space, carrying with him a baggage of iron, nickel, and secrets of the primordial universe. A somewhat inconvenient witness to cosmic evolution, he crashed to Earth in an encounter as violent as it was spectacular. From that day on, he remained with us: no more flames, no more cosmic void, only the company of our gravity and—finally—a place of his own. For him, we created a custom-designed base in wood and metal, a sort of throne on which to proudly display his stellar scars and the signs of his long adventure. Today, he is not just a scientific specimen, but a guest of honor: silent, ancient, and with a story worth more than a thousand words.

Seller's Story

The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements. Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past". All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
