Space jewellery. Accessories made from extra-terrestrial materials

Do you want a piece of jewellery that is literally out of this world? Some designers take an unconventional approach to seeking materials for jewellery. They prefer to look beyond this planet, or back to prehistoric times, to create accessories that stand out.
Modern jewellery crafted from space materials proves that it isn’t just gold that glitters, but meteorites and moon dust too.
Here’s some jewellery from outer space that’s available today:
Meteorites
That certainly sounds unusual, but jewellery made from meteorites is easy to find.
There are stores that specialise in meteorite jewellery as well as independent dealers selling on sites like Etsy and Amazon. You can find everything from heart-shaped meteorite pendants to statement necklaces, bracelets and cufflinks.
Moon Dust Jewellery
Moon dust refers to the particles that have settled on the moon and can be included in meteorite jewellery, but are also referred to as lunar and fossil jewellery. They not only look stunning, but give you the opportunity to own your own little piece of the moon and wear it round your neck, finger or arm.
Dinosaur jewellery
Although of this planet, dinosaur jewellery is not of this age. It offers us proof of an earlier era when dinosaurs roamed the earth.
Fossilised dinosaur teeth, bones and eggs are regularly incorporated into unusual jewellery by eco-friendly designers and dinosaur jewels were considered the height of fashion a few years ago.
Conclusion:
The unusual materials that are regularly used in jewellery today show there are plenty of opportunities to be different and a little more dramatic in your jewellery.
