A Iron Meteorite - 4.5 billion years ago in a handmade wooden baroque style frame. The specimens are mounted on high quality acid free black conservation board with a black mount and striking white edge, all rounded off with baroque style corner protectors.

The Campo del Cielo Meteorite is a shiny solid piece of debris from an object such as a comet, asteroid, or meteoroid that originates in outer space and survives its journey through the atmosphere to reach the surface of a planet or moon, in this case, Earth. When the meteor enters the atmosphere, various factors such as friction, pressure and chemical interactions with the atmospheric gases cause it to heat up and radiate heat. It then becomes a meteor and forms a fireball that is known as a shooting star or a falling star.

These meteors are believed to be 4.5 billion years old.
