Gold Meteorite Bracelet. This rare and unusual rolled gold bracelet has nine rectangular 10X3mm meteorite beads imbedded in a thick rolled 14 karat gold bracelet. Each of the rectangular beads has been carefully cut from an ordinary chondrite stony meteorite NWA 869 that formed at the origin of the solar system 3.57 billion years ago. No rocks on earth have this chondrite structure because it was destroyed millions of years ago through volcanism. Chondrites of all shapes and sizes are visible in each of the nine rectangular meteorite beads. This bracelet is both beautiful and scientifically interesting. This is a very rare opportunity to buy meteorite jewelry as most meteorites are worth much more just as intact meteorites. Comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Estimated Value $400 - 600.

 
Realized $456
