Vacamuerta meteorite — cosmic fragments, 4.5 billion years old.

Vacamuerta names the Vaca Muerta meteorite: a rare stony-iron mesosiderite found in Chile's Atacama Desert. The Atacama is the driest non-polar desert on Earth — meteorites that fall there are preserved instead of weathering away. The fragments we use are sourced through verified Chilean cooperatives that document chain of custody.

Each meteorite piece is set by hand into silver or gold — never glued, never dyed. The Widmanstätten pattern (the cross-hatched crystalline grain visible in many iron meteorites and stony-iron meteorites) is etched and stabilized so the piece reveals its 4.5-billion-year structure on the surface.
