The Muonionalusta Meteorite is believed to have fallen nearly one million years ago. Today this incredible meteorite is now painstakingly cut into beautiful jewelry accessories. This pendant features a slice showcasing the mesmerizing "crisscrossing" Widmanstätten pattern in a rectangular shape approximately 0.98 x 0.59 inches (2.5 x 1.5 cm) which has been plated for protection. The meteorite is housed in a darker 925 sterling silver pendant, from the "Night Sky" collection, and sprinkled with round crystals. This piece can be worn at any length and is in excellent condition.
