The Muonionalusta Meteorite is an iron meteorite that fell in northern Scandinavia around a million years ago. It is known for its unique Widmanstätten patterns, intricate crystalline structures formed during the meteorite's slow cooling process in space. These patterns, along with the meteorite's extraterrestrial origin, make Muonionalusta highly sought after by collectors and jewelry makers.
The unique circular patterns on the surface of each bead are a byproduct of the spherical bead crossing the flat plane of the crystalline structures. This geometry creates the captivating circles that add intrigue and dimension to each piece.
The final image in this product listing shows the planar crystalline features features as well an example of how this material oxidizes when left uncoated.
