Authentic Iron Meteorite Cube — Widmanstätten Pattern

This one of a kind iron meteorite cube showcases the iconic Widmanstätten pattern. This crystalline structure only forms in metal alloys cooled over millions of years inside an asteroid. Polished on multiple faces with natural oxidation on others, this cube not only highlights both the metallic interior, but also the extraterrestrial weathering. A compact, display‑ready specimen, it brings the geometry, texture, and deep time of space directly into your collection.
