'Star-sung' Colossal Meteorite Sterling Silver Pendant

Meteorites
A meteorite is a solid piece of debris from a source such as an asteroid or a comet, which originates in outer space and survives its impact with the Earth's surface. Using a metal detector these are found by Adam's friend Hans in the deserts and fields of Argentina, in large craters in Campo Del Cielo; hence the name, which translates as 'Fields of Heaven'. Falling to the earth millions of years ago, they are a composition of nickel and iron in the form a rough droplet - the shape that they formed as they fell to earth! In terms of metaphysical healing, meteorites are said to inspire confidence and assist with strengthening the blood!

ACCORDION

Sterling Silver 925%
Why do silversmiths use 925%? Measured in parts per thousand, pure silver (999%) is too soft so silversmiths mix it with other metals to make it it harder. The purer the metal, the higher the polish, but it is a lot softer (thus less durable). The harder the metal is, the more hard wearing the jewellery is, but it will also tarnish easier as it has less silver content. Therefore, the silver industry set a standard percentage content for fine silver (925); what we know as "sterling silver". At Two Skies our silversmiths use 925 (sterling) silver for ring shafts and moving parts, and a very high 950% on our stones settings, which enables us to get a strong jewellery item with a beautiful and secure stone setting, without any gluing. Each piece of our jewellery is hand stamped with our Two Skies Hallmark alongside the recognised industry 925 Hallmark.
