Genuine Canyon Diablo Meteorite in Glass Dome
Own a piece from out of this world. The Canyon Diablo meteorite struck the Arizona desert approximately 50,000 years ago with such tremendous force it carved out the famous Barringer Crater — nearly a mile wide and 570 feet deep — one of the best preserved impact craters on the entire planet. Holding this fragment means holding a piece of the very meteorite that reshaped the Earth beneath your feet.
You are not just looking at a rock — you are looking at a frozen moment in cosmic history. Classified as an Iron, IAB Coarse Octahedrite, its rugged surface bears the scars of one of the most violent impact events in North American history. A slice of this fragment reveals the stunning Widmanstätten pattern, an intricate crystalline structure that took millions of years to form in the depths of space and cannot be replicated by any process on Earth. Beautifully presented in an elegant glass dome, it arrives ready to display and admire. A truly iconic addition to any collection.
