Rosetta Stone Meteorite Necklace

Rosetta Stone of the Universe

Meteorite Necklace

A thin slice of falling star older than anything on Earth, held between two circles of earthly gold. Crystal glyphs etched into the surface of the silvery meteorite provide clues to the formation of the Universe. They are the finger prints of time…the Rosetta stone for our Universe.

Simple…Pure…Elemental
Epic…Heroic

Closeup image of the etched meteorite surface:

The Gibeon Meteorite entered our atmosphere approximately thirty-thousand years ago, travelling from deep space for four billion years before falling in a shower of fragments over a large region of what is now Namibia.

Known as “the king of irons” for its high nickel content, the Gibeon meteorite has proven to be ideal for working in jewelry designs, particularly because of the beautiful crystalline patterns which are unique to each piece.

This patterning, known as the Widmanstatten pattern (shown above), tells the story of slow cooling over millions of years. The pattern does not appear in irons of earth—only in those which have come to earth as meteorites. Every slice of meteorite will have a different pattern, unique like a human fingerprint.
