An ancient artefact as a gift
A gift from deep time

An ancient artefact as a gift

A meteorite as old as the Solar System, an ammonite from the age of dinosaurs, a megalodon tooth or the skeleton of a prehistoric animal: a gift the recipient certainly does not already have. Every piece is genuine, one of a kind and comes with a provenance passport.

Why it makes a strong gift

A piece no one else has

01

Authenticity

Every piece comes with an exhibit passport and a certificate of authenticity: provenance, age, condition.

02

One of a kind

No two fossils or meteorites are alike — such a gift can never be repeated.

03

A story millions of years long

Age, place of discovery, scientific name — a ready-made story to tell when you give it.

04

Stays in sight

A meteorite on the desk, an ammonite on the shelf or a skeleton in the hall: the gift becomes part of the interior.

The gift in an interior

A gift that becomes part of the interior

This is how the piece looks not in a showcase but in a home or study: it is easier to judge its scale and choose a place — a desk, a shelf or a niche.

Questions and answers

FAQ

Why is a natural artefact a good gift?

It is genuine and one of a kind: no two meteorites or ammonites are alike. Every piece has a story — its age, where it was found, its scientific name — that is a pleasure to tell when giving it. And it lasts: it is placed on a desk, a shelf or in a niche rather than put away in a cupboard.

What does the recipient receive with the gift?

A RELICTUM exhibit passport with a certificate of authenticity. It states the piece's provenance, age and condition, details of any restoration and, where available, expert opinions.

How much does a gift cost?

Prices are shown in the catalogue: the most affordable pieces start from 80 000 ₽. Lots under 500,000 ₽: 34; monumental exhibits over 10 million ₽: 15. Some lots are priced on request.

Can I see the gift before buying?

Yes. The exhibits in our selections can be seen in person at the gallery in Moscow, 22 Bolshaya Yakimanka. It is best to arrange the time of your visit with a manager.

How is the gift delivered?

In Moscow and the Moscow region — by RELICTUM courier; across Russia — by CDEK or Russian Post; abroad — by arrangement. You can also collect the gift yourself in Moscow. The delivery cost is calculated when the order is placed.

How is the gift packed?

Small exhibits are presented in branded boxes and cases; large multi-part ones, such as skeletons, are shipped in specialised crates. RELICTUM covers transport insurance.

Who installs a large gift — a skeleton or a skull?

Skeletons, skulls and monumental exhibits are installed and mounted by RELICTUM or its contractor. The details are agreed when the order is confirmed.

How can I pay?

By bank card or via the Faster Payments System online, or in cash on courier delivery in Moscow or on collection.

Can a gift be returned if it is not right?

A unique exhibit can be returned by agreement if its condition, packaging and passport are preserved. Stands, display cases and frames made to individual order cannot be returned.

About this selection

How to choose

Start with the person and the place where the gift will stand. For a desk, choose something you want to hold: a palm-sized meteorite, ammonite or megalodon tooth. For a living room, hall or boardroom, a piece visible from the doorway works better: a large mineral, a polished ammonite or a skeleton. For an anniversary, the age of the find is the right accent — millions and billions of years say more than any engraving. A collector cares most about preservation and rarity, so check the exhibit's passport and ask about restoration. If you are unsure about scale, look at the interior photos on the lot page or visit the gallery.
