Description
Campo del Cielo iron meteorite fragment pendant. Natural meteorite fragment from Argentina Campo del Cielo (‘Field of Heaven’) area believed to have fallen 4000 to 5000 years ago. While this fragment has not been analyzed, most Campo fragments contain primarily iron, with inclusions of nickel, cobalt, phosphorus, gallium and germanium.
Nugget is approximately 1.15 inches (29.33 mm) long by 0.92 inch (23.45 mm) at its widest point; weighs approximately 25.4 grams excluding its sterling silver prong setting. Nugget is uncoated and will patina naturally over time. Best kept dry to prevent iron rusting. Color is black with silver highlights.
Sturdy handmade 14-gauge sterling silver prong setting (the front of which is textured with a matte finish) with incorporated large sturdy bail suspends nugget from a black round neck cord with simple hook-and-eye sterling clasp. You must select a desired neck-cord length before adding the pendant to your cart.
