This Libyan Desert Glass has been hand carved by me into a wing/petal shaped pendant. Found on a strewnfield in the Western Egyptian desert, this mainly Lechatelierite mineral has been used in Egyptian antiquities as a gemstone. This impact glass has been disputed amongst scientists to as whether or not it came from an impact at all - mainly because no impact site has been located - yet! It has been dated to be formed around 29 million years ago. Did you know, Tutankhamun's broach has a carved Libyan Desert Glass scarab in it? I got the raw piece from Stone Haven Gems!
Wear alone, or pair with another with and a shape in the middle - make your necklace as unique as your are! The last image is a sample of this style paired with others for a visual reference.
If you are looking to build your own necklace with 'wings', I recommend pairing with something that is close in dimension! If you have trouble envisioning a necklace, don't hesitate emailing me at gotstonedjewelry@gmail.com with the listing links and I will send you a picture of what it looks like :)
