Hi Folks!

I have a few new or interesting offerings that might be of interest to some.

First, I have a big, wind-sculpted individual of Libyan Desert Glass.
(has a few minor recent chips, but no major breakages, you have to
look closely to notice them). This piece weighs 128 grams and has
nice translucency and a few tiny inclusions. The best aspect is the
wind-sculpted shape that is quite unique, and it displays well in
several positions. See it here -

Second, I have a UNWA endcut "hand specimen" -

Lastly, some nice oriented whole-stones that are 98-100%
freshly-crusted. These are top-quality examples of their respective
falls. Both show roll-over lips and heat shield shapes.

(I also have fully-crusted Bensour and Bassikounou stones available)

Don't forget to use the coupon code "metlist" at checkout for a 25%
discount on your entire order.

Thanks for looking and have nice sunday! :)
