Whereas most Brenham pallasites possess smooth, rounded surfaces, some specimens, such as this one, possess striking features and surfaces which underwent harsh natural sculpting during the meteor's ablation process.   This pallasite's strong sculpted lines and the deeply-scooped area on one face are complemented by a surface of the other extreme, a straight, very smooth-textured obverse.   This is an unusual centerpiece specimen.
