Polished Lewisian Gneiss slices

Lewisian gneiss is an ancient form of rock, estimated to be up to 3 billion years old, which offers a unique window into the Earth's early history.

These pieces have been cut into slices and then polished on both sides to make a nice display object.

This gneiss is characterized by its distinctive banding and intricate mineral structures, and admired by collectors for its contrasting pink and green colours.

Oh - very important information - it's pronounced very similar to "nice".
