Item details

This is a meteorite cicada figurine. The cicada rests in a prone position, its wings spread and folded over its back, forming a simple yet lively silhouette. Layered vein patterns are carved across the wings, while the metal surface displays gray-brown tones and a naturally mottled texture. Fine wear marks and variations in color lend it an archaic character. Approximately 22 cm in length, weighing 1873 grams
