This material gets referenced on the Jewellery Table but is not defined in the main text. What is it, please?

It's meteoritic iron, p. 452 of the 2e book.

Indeed: I cheated by searching the PDF for the page citation (though I remembered "meteoritic iron").

Re: What Is Star Metal?
By Crom!!!
by Starmetal was Conan's Sword in the 90's animation. It "killed" Snake-Men and send them on an other plane.
This game has so many sword and sorcery references and i'm still finding them 4 years later.
