tua9 An originally curved fragment of a disc-shaped tektite, with translucent edges, showing plastic twist. 66 23 $23

A beautiful and significant piece! Flow lines surround the broader end and extend to the tip, showing that it is oriented.

tu#20 Shaped like a portion of orange. Surface facing us is smoother than back side, with flow lines showing the direction of cutting in solid state. 35 71 $71

tu01 Like an animal foot, with original cracking in the atmosphere 65 x 55 91 $150 (sold)
