Happy Saturday from The Dreaming Peddler! 🐸✨
Libyan Desert Glass is a rare natural glass found in the Great Sand Sea of the Sahara. It was formed when the extreme heat from a meteorite impact melted silica-rich desert material around 29 million years ago, leaving behind the beautiful golden glass scattered across the desert today. 🏜️☄️
Its human history is just as fascinating—Libyan Desert Glass has been collected and sculpted for thousands of years, and perhaps its most famous appearance is in the carved scarab centerpiece of a pectoral found in the tomb of Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun. 👑
We have a beautiful selection in the shop right now, including large natural specimens, hand-wrapped pendants, and sterling silver jewelry. 💛
Ancient history, remarkable geology, and a little piece of the Sahara to hold in your hand. Come explore them in person! ✨
Shop hours 10am–8pm 🐸✨
