From the depths of space to the palm of your hand, this lovely, handcrafted pendant was made with a shrapnel fragment from the Campo del Cielo meteorite, wrapped in antiqued Sterling silver wire and gem-quality, faceted peridot beads. The wire was oxidized, the meteorite was coated in clear lacquer to resist corrosion then the silver wire was polished to bring out textural variations in the weave. The whole pendant, measures 51x32x22mm (2.0" x 1.3" x 0.9") and comes suspended on your choice of chain. This is truly a one-of-a-kind piece and there will never be another like it.
Pendant comes with the original certificate of authenticity accompanying the meteorite.
This piece comes in a luxurious, black velvet jeweler's box, contained in a cardboard outer shell (so you can wrap the box without damaging the velvet); perfect for gift-giving. This is an heirloom-quality piece you can treasure for many years to come. This ships fully-insured and with international tracking, for your convenience and peace of mind. Makes a great gift for the space enthusiast in your life!
