Iridium T-Shirt

Explore the intersection of fashion and science with our Iridium T-Shirt from the "Periodic Table of Chemical Elements" collection. The embodiment of a chic geek, this tee features a meticulously crafted line art design, showcasing the 77th element in all its glory. The striking graphic, rendered in a minimalist style, pays homage to the nostalgic glory of vintage scientific illustrations, making this more than just a T-shirt – it’s a wearable work of art that tells a story of the universe's building blocks.

The Iridium T-shirt is named after and inspired by the chemical element Iridium, one of the rarest elements found in the Earth's crust. Discovered in 1803 by British scientist Smithson Tennant, Iridium is often used in high-temperature applications due to its extremely high melting point. Interestingly, Iridium also plays a significant role in the scientific community's theorizing about the extinction of dinosaurs. A layer of Iridium-rich clay dating back 66 million years is frequently cited as evidence that a massive asteroid strike may have led to their demise. So, when you don our Iridium T-Shirt, you're not just making a fashion statement; you're also wearing a piece of intriguing scientific history.
