Libyan Glass Tektite Jewelry Necklace Sunburst Design 

This exquisite Libyan desert glass necklace is shaped like a radiant sunburst, featuring a professionally cut and polished Libyan glass gemstone set in 925 sterling silver.

What Makes Libyan Desert Glass So Rare?

Libyan desert glass is one of the rarest natural glasses on Earth. Its striking yellow hue is a product of intense heat from a meteorite airburst that fused and transformed desert sands in the Libyan desert region. This "glass storm" event, which occurred approximately 29 million years ago, showered the land with yellow tektite droplets for around 20 minutes, creating unique glass formations.

Cosmic Beauty in a Unique Sunburst Necklace

This rare gemstone has been crafted into a beautiful, froth-like sunburst pendant, honoring the glass's cosmic origins. This captivating jewelry piece has long been cherished by Bedouins, explorers, and, more recently, collectors of meteorites and impact glass.
