The Pallas 1772 Collection

Authenticated meteorite, finished by hand. See the pattern in motion.
How is the meteorite's authenticity verified?

Every piece is set with meteorite from a registered classification in the Meteoritical Bulletin Database, the international scientific record kept by the Meteoritical Society. The registry is public, so you can check it yourself using the registry link in The Object section below. Your piece also arrives with a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its exact meteorite source.
What exactly am I getting?

Your pendant arrives on its matching chain, ready to wear the moment you open the box. With it comes a signed Certificate of Authenticity naming the exact meteorite your piece was cut from, all presented in a gift box, ready to give.

Every piece is sealed in rhodium for everyday wear, ships fully insured and tracked, and is covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. The meteorite is genuine: not resin, not a replica, not a coating.
Will it rust, and can I wear it every day?

No — that's exactly what the sealing is for. Raw iron meteorite would rust, so every piece is finished in rhodium: the same protective plating used on fine white-gold jewellery. It seals the meteorite against moisture, sweat and the rhythm of everyday life. Designed for daily wear, under or over a shirt — it's yours to wear without a second thought.
What if it's not right for me?

You have 30 days to return any unworn piece in its original packaging, with its certificate, for a full refund. Every piece is also covered by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects — structural faults or a setting that fails under normal wear. It doesn't cover accidental damage or loss.

MATERIAL

Aletai is an iron meteorite first recovered in 1898 from the Altay region of northern Xinjiang, China. Its impact site has yielded the longest meteorite strewn field ever documented — over 74 tonnes of cosmic iron — and the class was officially named in 2016.

The crystalline Widmanstätten pattern visible across the surface formed in deep space over four and a half billion years and cannot be reproduced on Earth. Every cross-section is unique to the slice it was cut from.

The Aletai face is set into a brushed titanium-grade steel frame on a heavy cable chain.

Classification: Aletai (IIIE-an iron meteorite, coarse octahedrite)
Location: Altay, Xinjiang, China
First recovered: 1898 — class officially named 2016
Total recovered mass: 74 tonnes
Catalogued in the Meteoritical Bulletin Database.

THE OBJECT

The dog tag was issued to soldiers so the dead could be named. In the century since, it has become the shape men reach for when they want to carry something quiet and personal.

The Field Tag removes the engraving entirely. The face is a single panel of authenticated Aletai meteorite — an iron mass first recovered in 1898 from the Altay region of northern Xinjiang, China (Meteoritical Bulletin entry). The Aletai impact created the longest meteorite strewn field ever documented on this planet, dispersing more than 74 tonnes of cosmic iron across the Chinese steppe.

The meteorite panel is held in a polished titanium-grade steel frame, smoothed at the edges. Across the face you can read the Widmanstätten pattern, the crystalline lattice that forms only when iron cools at one degree per million years. No two panels are identical, because no two slices of the meteorite are identical.

Suspended from a polished cable chain. Signed certificate of authenticity.

No initials. No dates. The material itself is the marking.

APPROXIMATE DIMENSIONS
Pendant: 35mm × 20mm
Includes free matching titanium chain (55cm)
Materials: Aletai iron meteorite, polished titanium-grade steel

THE CRAFT

One pair of hands. Cut to finish. Never split between artisans, never automated.

The raw slice is shaped, then etched in dilute nitric acid for the precise interval that surfaces the Widmanstätten pattern without softening its edges. Hand-polished, set, finished against a leather wheel. Hours per piece. No two faces are identical — the lattice inside the meteorite never is.

We don't source from suppliers who can't name the meteorite by its registered classification. We don't produce in volumes that compromise the work of the bench.

Slow work. Made by hand. In numbers small enough to remember.
