15mm x 36mm Libyan Yellow Tektite left in its rough natural state, and paired with a nice wide 925 sterling silver bezel and bail. Just the pendant, does NOT come with chain.
Libyan Yellow Tektite are found on the Libya-Egypt border. They are 26-29 million years old, and were firmed when a meteorite hit the earth, causing the terrestrial rock to melt, then quickly cool to form glass. The color of Libyan Desert Tektites is due to a high concentration of silica sand. They have a hardness of 5-6. They have been used since antiquity, and can even be found in the funerary necklace of King Tutankhamen. They are thought to enhance confidence, mental acuity, and communication on all levels. They increase creativity, and feelings of happiness, curiosity, and playfulness. Libyan Yellow Tektites help to increase personal will, maintain personal boundaries, and overcome fear of social situations.
