Trillion Cut Libyan Desert Glass Gemstone - 5.5ct #256

"Fulgurite" Phenomenon: Custom Precision Trillion Cut Libyan Desert Glass (5.5 ct)

A phenomenal piece of natural glass with a history etched by the elemental forces of the cosmos and the desert.

The Essence of Energy:

This spectacular 5.5 carat Libyan Desert Glass (LDG) has been transformed from a raw, ancient relic into a brilliant modern gemstone. Formed through natural phenomena, this rare material is believed by many to have been created when a massive meteorite impact melted the desert sand into a nearly pure silica glass.

However, the powerful energy it holds suggests a deep connection to other natural forces, sometimes referred to as "Fulgurite"—the rare glass tubes created when a lightning bolt strikes the sand, instantly fusing it into glass by reaching temperatures over 3,000°F. Whether born of cosmic impact or the intense power of a desert lightning strike, this gem embodies raw, geological power.

Custom Precision & Dazzling Cut:

• Gemstone: Natural Libyan Desert Glass (LDG)

• Weight: 5.5 Carats

• Cut: Custom Precision Trillion

• Color: Clear, Translucent Golden-Yellow / Champagne

A Piece of History:

Libyan Desert Glass holds an unparalleled mystique. Revered by the Ancient Egyptians, a piece of LDG was famously found carved as a scarab in King Tutankhamun's burial jewelry. Owning this gem is holding a piece of Earth's cataclysmic history.
