A round pendant of solid meteorite, set in sterling silver and hung on a sterling silver chain in three lengths: 45, 50 or 55 cm. Every slice shows its own pattern, so yours will not look exactly like the photograph.
Every piece is cut from whichever meteorite is on the bench: Gibeon from Namibia, which fell about a thousand kilometres from us, Muonionalusta from Sweden, or Seymchan from Russia. All three are older than the Earth: each one is a piece of the inside of an asteroid that melted and separated into a core and a mantle, the way the Earth did, and then broke up while the Solar System was still forming. The crosshatch lattice only forms when molten iron cools over millions of years, which is why it cannot be made on Earth and why no two pieces are the same. Tell us if you would like a particular one and we will let you know what is in stock.
