Ever promised someone the Moon? Now you can fulfill that promise!

This lunar meteorite pendant is made with a sample of genuine Moon meteorite fragments, meaning it was once part of the surface of the Moon! The Moon, The Light That Rules the Night, its something that everyone recognizes as so normal they barely give it a second thought yet at the same time it is something truly magical and mysterious.

Lunar meteorites are pieces of the Moon that were blasted into space by an impact event on the lunar surface, occasionally these rocks fall to Earth as meteorites. Lunar meteorites are extremely rare as only just over 300 have ever been found--and none have been found in North America, South America or Europe. Unfortunately fakes are common, however, we can prove the authenticity of our meteorites. For more information on that. This necklace is handmade using sterling silver and pure crystal glass. We felt that sliver best represents the silvery glow of the Moon. The crystal glass is shaped to allow for some magnification for a close up view of the magical contents. Pendant dimensions, 15mm by 15mm. Chain is adjustable to the following sizes, 15.5", 17.5" and 19.5. Weight of the enclosed Moon rock fragments is 10mg. Comes presented in a lovely gift box with a gift bag, information sheet and a signed certificate of authenticity.

Priority Express (1-2 days) is also available. Some countries, such as South Africa, place restrictions on private ownership of meteorites. As far as we know, Canada, Australia and all of Europe have no such restrictions, but we recommend you double check.

Such as NWA XXXX when a simple check of the Meteoritical Bulletin Database, or Google, reveals no such entry, or entry does not match description. Genuine lunar meteorites are far too important, and valuable, to bypass this process. Means absolutely nothing without laboratory confirmation. Almost all lunar meteorites have only been found in Antarctica, Northwest Africa and the country of Omen. None have ever been found in North America, South America or Europe. While it is true about 95% of meteorites (chondrites, irons) contain high levels of metal and are attracted to magnets, lunar, martian and achondrites are not. It should also be noted that just because a stone is attracted to magnets does not mean it is a meteorite. Some terrestrial stones that contain magnetite will respond to magnets.
