Lot 9 | A BRAHIN NUGGET
Estimate value
£ 2 000 – 3 000
Of an otherworldly form, this meteorite exhibits yellow aggregates of olivine crystals suspended in its durable iron-nickel matrix. Pallasites represent less than 0.2% of all known meteorites, and this is both a decorative and intriguing example. Modern preparation.

3 x 4 x 21/2in. (7.5 x 10 x 6.5cm.)
