Description from the seller

Silver pendant with Seymchan meteorite – Cosmic Pallasite

This pendant encloses an authentic fragment of Seymchan meteorite, belonging to the rare pallasite class, embedded in an elegant mount made of solid silver. The interior of the pendant reveals a fascinating structure: translucent olivine crystals, yellow-green or golden brown in color, suspended in a metallic matrix of iron-nickel, coming directly from the molten heart of an ancient celestial body.

Originating from eastern Siberia, the Seymchan meteorite was discovered in 1967 and has since become one of the most prized among collectors for its gemological beauty and structural stability. The visible transparent olivine crystals give the piece a shimmering and lively brightness, which changes with the light and the angle of observation.

Features:
Material of the pendant: Authentic Seymchan meteorite (pallasite)
Mounting: 925 Sterling Silver
Meteorite origin: Magadan Region, Siberia – discovered in 1967.
Crystals: Translucent olivine (extraterrestrial peridot)
Shape: Disc with acrylic protection (front and back)


A fragment of the cosmos:
Pallasites are among the rarest and most spectacular meteorites known, representing less than 1% of known falls. This pendant is more than just jewelry; it is a window into the core of a protoplanet destroyed billions of years ago, an object that combines aesthetics and science in a work of rare beauty.
