Embedded with meteorite dust, this handcrafted relic can be either a one-part pendant (the bronze "Astrocore" with embedded meteorite dust and constellation/planetary orbit etching details) or as two pieces with the outer "Chrysalis". The bronze Astrocore can slide into the Chrysalis, where the necklace chain can be threaded through to link the two together as one. And when I say threaded, I mean patiently threaded --it's made to be a narrow fit so that there's not a lot of jostling and jingling. Just the right amount. : ) This is a heavy pendant. If you prefer lightweight jewelry, I recommend looking at other jewelry that I have. But if you want a true relic feel, this with the Chrysalis + Astrocore configuration is my highest recommendation.
Chrysalis dimensions (blackened steel): 50mm x 22mm x 14mm
Astrocore dimensions (weathered bronze): 35mm x 5mm x 5mm
☆ Includes your choice of pendant configuration + a 24in oxidized sterling silver necklace chain.
☆ The pendant contains the meteorite dust of your choice (NWA 869 or Martian)
☆ Included is your pendant’s corresponding meteorite classification card
☆ Everything is packaged within an embossed suede pouch and plastic EDC case (not waterproof).
☆ Designed and made in-studio by me (Ash). If you have any special request, just let me know. I'll do what I can to make it special for you. This is your artifact and with the distressing and weathering process, each one is unique with subtle surface variations.
Note: These relics will weather (oxidize) and the patina will change over time. Like any fine jewelry, please do not wear these in the water or expose to moisture.
