Description

The Muonionalusta Meteorite is a rare iron meteorite that fell to Earth over one million years ago, originating from the core of a celestial body. Discovered in northern Sweden near the Arctic Circle, it is prized for its stunning Widmanstätten Pattern — a natural crystalline structure formed over billions of years as the meteorite slowly cooled in space. Each calibrated cabochon is a genuinely unique piece of the cosmos, making it an exceptional choice for jewelry designers and metalsmiths seeking to incorporate an extraterrestrial element into their work.

Features

  • Displays the iconic Widmanstätten Pattern — a crystalline structure exclusive to iron meteorites, invisible in nature and revealed only through cutting and etching
  • Etched and nickel plated to help prevent rust and preserve the surface detail
  • Calibrated oval form measures 8mm × 6mm for consistent setting in standard mounts
  • Each stone is one-of-a-kind — natural variation in pattern is inherent and expected
  • Suitable for use in rings, pendants, earrings, and other fine jewelry applications
