Natural History Museum Display Case Collection - Exotic Artifacts from Around the World

This display case contains the most interesting, unusual, and exotic specimens from around the world and solar system. This collection contains meteorites, fossils, gemstones, artifacts, amber, and other rare materials ranging from contemporary dates to ancient times. It would take a long time and a lot of money to assemble a collection like this, and now you can have this kit without the huge investment of time and money to track down every individual specimen. This collection is like having an entire natural-history museum in one display case.

All specimens are 100% genuine and acquired from reliable sources with solid provenance. Each specimen comes in an acrylic container with data label that has information about each piece. The specimens can be removed from their cases and handled if desired. All of the containers are arranged in a handsome glass-lid display case that measure 8-inches by 12-inches.

This display would make a unique conversation piece in your home, office, or observatory. Refer to the list below. Note, each specimen is unique and the appearance may vary slightly from one kit to the next.
