This handsome 12" x 8" Riker box display has a black pebblegrain finish and a glass lid. Underneath the glass lid in black foam cutouts are 28 different meteorite specimens. Each specimen is generously sized and comes in a labelled gemjar. The labels are facing up in the gemjars, so the specimens can be identified easily without removing the jars from the display. Of course, each specimen can be removed and handled or examined if desired.
This is an entire meteorite collection in one kit. This would make an ideal starter collection, outreach prop or teaching tool. It's also a good way to acquire a large number of rare types and falls to fill holes in an existing collection.
