Chelyabinsk Meteorite

Experience the awe of the cosmos with our Chelyabinsk Meteorite specimen, a rare and extraordinary fragment from one of the most significant meteorite events in recent history. This celestial gem fell in Chelyabinsk, South Ural state, Russia, on February 15th, 2013, captivating the world with its dramatic arrival.

This meteorite is a remnant of the massive fireball that blazed across the sky in 2013, witnessed by thousands and captured in numerous videos.

Primarily composed of ordinary chondrite, the Chelyabinsk meteorite contains a mix of silicate minerals and metal, showcasing a blend of ancient cosmic materials. These specimens feature a fusion crust from their fiery descent through the atmosphere, often exhibiting a dark, glassy exterior with an interior of bright, stony material.

Unlike many meteorites that fell in ancient times, the Chelyabinsk meteorite has a well-documented fall, providing a unique and verified origin story that adds to its intrigue and value.

Acquiring a Chelyabinsk Meteorite is more than just adding to your collection; it’s about owning a piece of modern astronomical history. With its dramatic fall, scientific value, and unique aesthetic, this rare specimen is a prized possession for any collector. Don’t miss the opportunity to own a fragment of the universe’s recent past.

Jewellery Care & 1 Year Warranty

In jewellery form, some crystals are more hardy than others. For everyday wearers, we recommend crystals that fall in the Quartz family or have a Moh's hardness level of over 5.5-6. Avoid excessive water exposure, especially in pools or the ocean and any harsh chemicals. Delicate crystals like Amber, Moonstone, Opal, and iron-based meteorites need gentle handling due to potential discolouration or structural risks. Store safely, and clean with care. Rest assured that our 1-year jewellery warranty covers any manufacturing defects. With proper care, we expect your pieces to last many years to come. In our 18 years of business, we still wear some treasures from our original collection! Learn more about our warranty and care guide here.
