It is named after the town of Vredefort, which is near its centre. The structure's central uplift is known as the Vredefort Dome.

Quick shipping with FedEx to the US. It was well packaged. The one I received did have a small crack and chip in the lip, but stuff like that is expected with a natural material like this. I'm happy with my purchase.
