The Mini Museum is a hand made product and the production process lends itself to small variations.  All Mini Museums are sold "as-is" and by purchasing a Mini Museum, you acknowledge that such variations can occur. Such variations highlight the artisanal nature of the project, as each Mini Museum is made by hand and absolutely unique.

The Mini Museum is a portable collection of curiosities where every item is authentic, iconic and labeled. It's been carefully designed to take you on a journey of learning and exploration. Each Mini Museum is a handcrafted, limited edition; the small, 12-specimen Third Edition is limited to just 3,000 pieces. And If you consider the age of some of these specimens – it's been billions of years in the making.

The 12 Specimen Third Edition of the Mini Museum (MM3) includes:

• Detailed Printed Companion Guide
• Custom Microfiber Pouch
• Display and Storage Box
• Certificate of Authenticity

Please note: unlike the larger, 29 specimen version, this 12 specimen version is not individually numbered.

The Third Edition of the Mini Museum measures approximately 3" wide x 4" tall x 1" thick and contains 12 different specimens:

• SPACE GEMS (4,557,000,000 years old)
• OLDEST RIVER (Finke, 400,000,000 years old)

Not one of them has anything like this!)
