The Sikhote-Alin meteorite fell on February 12, 1947, near the Sikhote-Alin Mountains in eastern Siberia, Russia, creating one of the largest recorded meteorite falls in modern history. As it entered Earth's atmosphere, the iron meteorite broke apart in a brilliant fireball, producing a series of explosions that scattered thousands of fragments across the surrounding forest. Today, Sikhote-Alin specimens are prized for their distinctive regmaglypts (thumbprint-like depressions), sculpted surfaces, and significance in the study of iron meteorites.
This bracelet features 7 pieces of this world famous meteorite! They are set in sterling silver and the bracelet features a toggle clasp that allows for adjustments in length for a perfect fit.
