The custom hand wrapped stainless steel wire and large silver bail and makes this stunning meteorite jewelry, and truly is "out of this world" large space rock iron meteorite jewelry!
It is a wild cosmos and the awesome, fiery space rocks that have impacted our planet are proof. The meteorite in this jewelry is called Campo del Cielo. Campos are iron meteorites found in northern Argentina, South America, and impacted our Earth about 4,500 years ago.
These meteorites were originally used by South American Indians in weaponry and trade. Early explorers to the region interpreted the name the natives gave to the meteorites to mean Campo del Cielo (or "Field of the Sky").
Space rocks are believed to be small fragments of asteroids, broken off and ejected mainly from the asteroid belt located between Mars and Jupiter. They are about seven hundred million years older than the oldest rocks on Earth making meteorites, in our brief lifetimes, seemingly "eternal."
Metaphysical Lore: Meteorites bring energy from the universe. They ground creative and emotional energies, and encourage physical stamina, bravery and strength.
