Stylish Réaltra Cross Pendant – Stainless Steel and Meteorite, with Chain

Product detailed description

Stainless steel and Réaltra meteorite cross pendant

This cross is an elegant piece of jewellery that combines elements of luxury and natural materials. It is crafted from polished stainless steel and features segments that showcase unique textures. This texture originates from meteorite material, identifiable by the delicate patterns (Widmanstätten patterns) typical of Muonionalusta meteorites.

The cross is symmetrical, with sharp lines and clean edges, giving it a modern and geometric appearance. It features detailed craftsmanship in the form of segments embedded into each arm of the cross. These segments are pieces of meteorite, adding a unique character and a story linked to the cosmos to the jewellery. The top of the cross is finished with a loop, allowing it to be hung on a chain. This jewellery is not only aesthetically pleasing but also symbolic and is suitable for lovers of original jewellery with a story and a cosmic connection.

Meteorite. Imagine a celestial body, woven from iron or fossilised cosmic dust, hurtling through space at speeds of tens of kilometres per second. It travels for millions of years from the farthest corners of space, perhaps around planets, moons and stars, or as part of ancient celestial bodies. What could it have experienced on its journey? What forces and energies acted upon it? What could it "see" on its timeless journey through endless space? Stop for a moment and imagine its story – a story that is more than just a picture of a stone falling on the earth's surface.

One of the most famous meteorites is Muonionalusta, a fascinating piece of space that fell on the territory of northern Sweden approximately millions of years ago. This iron meteorite bears a unique signature in the form of the pattern of Widmanstätten patterns – finely etched lines that reveal its long story of formation at low temperatures in the vacuum of space. Its history began more than 4.5 billion years ago, when it was part of the first planetary embryos in our solar system.

The Muonionalusta meteorite is a witness to cosmic epochs, a bearer of secrets that deserves our attention. Its journey, endless and fascinating, often ends dramatically – with a fiery passage through the atmosphere or the impact on Earth itself. Those who have experienced such an event describe an incredibly bright glow, shining brighter than the sun, and astonishing pressure waves that can shatter windows for miles around. Fragments of Muonionalusta, like other meteorites, are silent storytellers of millions of years of journeys that end in your hands. To hold Muonionalusta in your palm is to hold a piece of the ancient universe, a speck of stardust that has become part of our planet. Just take a moment to pause and feel – the energy, the weight, and above all, the unique history that the meteorite carries within it.

The name Réaltra comes from Irish Gaelic, one of the Celtic languages, and its meaning is "galaxy". This term carries a strong symbolism associated with the universe, stars, and the infinity of space. In Celtic culture, which was deeply connected with nature and cosmic cycles, a word like Réaltra could evoke a fascination with the night sky, the mysteries of the universe, and the connection of man with the greater cosmic order. The name of the jewellery thus refers not only to the physical beauty of the starry sky, but also to philosophical and spiritual questions – the infinity of time, the path of energies and stories that come from the stars. Réaltra as a name also emphasises exclusivity and uniqueness – just as every galaxy in the cosmos is different, so every piece of jewellery or object bearing this name can be seen as unique and connected to the cosmic heritage. In the context of jewellery with a meteorite, the word Réaltra becomes a poetic celebration of the meteorite's cosmic journey – its origin in the cosmic depths, its journey through galaxies, and finally its landing here on Earth, where it became part of the human story.
