Well-being

🌍 Description and formation

Libyan Desert Glass is a natural impact glass of remarkable purity (nearly 98% silica).
It formed approximately 29 million years ago following a meteorite impact or airburst, which melted the silica-rich sands of the Great Sand Sea on the border between Egypt and Libya.
The vitrified sand then cooled, creating a translucent golden glass, sometimes tinted with green or amber, known today as Libyan Desert Glass.

This unique material was discovered in the early 20th century by European explorers traveling through the Great Sand Sea. However, fragments have been known since antiquity: the Egyptians used it to make jewelry and ornaments, including a pendant on Tutankhamun’s pectoral, a symbol of solar light and divine protection.
