Description from the seller
**Brenham Pallasite Meteorite – Adjustable Ring**
A unique piece of extraterrestrial history transformed into a wearable collector’s item.
This elegant adjustable ring features a genuine slice of the **Brenham pallasite meteorite**, one of the classic and best-known pallasites in the world. The meteorite displays the characteristic structure of this remarkable group: translucent olivine crystals embedded within a metallic iron-nickel matrix.
Pallasites are among the most visually spectacular meteorites. Their beautiful olivine crystals create a striking contrast with the surrounding meteoritic metal. Each fragment has its own completely natural pattern, formed by processes that took place billions of years ago during the early history of our Solar System.
The **Brenham meteorite** was discovered in Kansas, USA, and has become one of the iconic representatives of the pallasite group.
The meteorite has been carefully incorporated into an **adjustable ring**, allowing the size to be adapted to different fingers. It can therefore be appreciated both as an unusual piece of jewellery and as a small, wearable meteorite specimen.
Because the meteorite insert is a natural material, its internal structure, olivine distribution and metallic pattern are completely unique.
**Meteorite:** Brenham
**Type:** Pallasite
**Find location:** Kansas, USA
**Material:** Natural meteorite with olivine crystals and iron-nickel metal
**Ring:** Adjustable size
A distinctive piece for meteorite collectors, jewellery enthusiasts, or anyone fascinated by objects that literally originated beyond Earth.
The sides of the ring are decorated with the traditional Tibetan inscription of the famous Buddhist mantra “Om Mani Padme Hum”. One of the best-known mantras in Tibetan Buddhism, it is traditionally associated with compassion, wisdom and purification of the mind. The deeply engraved, darkened characters create a striking contrast with the polished surface of the ring and give the piece an additional symbolic dimension.
