Euston Road Chondrite

I was a bit surprised to see this large chondrite sat on the top of steps at London University Hospital, Euston Road, London. Very nice though....

Although may fit in your behemoth of a cabinet Graham............

Excellent Dave...nice stone...a few thumbprints would have been nice though. Too big for my cabinet too Martin...but would make a nice seat in the middle of the room

Clearly not a chondrite, it just looks too much like one.... An interesting thing none-the-less; I'm guessing man-made ( stuck together and then polished, specially for display. Quite a lot of work. I do like it though.
On what I think is a related subject, but could be wrong, a well know museum curator asking about quarantine procedures for meteorites....
