1.9" Polished Banded Iron Egg

This is a gorgeous, 1.9" tall egg crafted from a vibrant red banded iron formation. It has been polished to a glossy finish all the way around and is accompanied by an acrylic ring display stand.

Banded Iron Formations (BIFs) are among the oldest rocks on Earth, with origins dating back over 2 billion years to the Precambrian era. These formations are significant not only for their beauty but also for their historical and geological importance, as they were formed in Earth's early oceans when oxygen levels began to rise, leading to the precipitation of iron. This process helped pave the way for the more oxygen-rich atmosphere we rely on today.
