INDOCHINITE TEKTITE/IMPACTITE FRAGMENT | HANDCRAFTED WHITE RHODIUM PENDANT NECKLACE
LAZZERINI-GEOJOIAS presents a piece featuring a rare natural crystal. The set includes a Portuguese-link chain (105.0 g) with a box clasp and a wire-wrapped pendant—both plated in 0.75µ white rhodium (hypoallergenic)—featuring an *in natura* Indochinite tektite/impactite fragment from the Indochinese Peninsula. The design highlights the stone's sculptural form and brilliant, long-lasting luster without obscuring the history of this extraterrestrial material.
WHY THIS GEO-JEWEL IS SPECIAL
• Impact history: natural glass formed on Earth under extreme temperatures generated by a cosmic collision.
• Absolute uniqueness: one-of-a-kind shape, texture, cavities, and reflections.
• Striking presence: a 105.0 g piece for admirers of geology, astronomy, and original jewelry design.
• Brazilian craftsmanship: an artistic setting designed to enhance the material in its natural form.
• Premium finish: approximately 0.75 µm white rhodium plating.
ORIGIN & THE SCIENCE OF BEAUTY
Tektite is a silica-rich, nonvolcanic natural glass produced when the hypervelocity impact of a celestial body melts terrestrial rocks and ejects molten material into the atmosphere, where it cools and falls back to Earth. It is therefore neither a meteorite nor an extraterrestrial fragment: it is Earth material transformed by a cosmic event. Indochinites are dark tektites from the Australasian strewn field, found in Southeast Asia, including the Indochinese Peninsula, and linked to an event that occurred about 788,000 years ago.
SYMBOLISM & TRADITIONS
According to cultural and energetic traditions, Indochinite tektite symbolizes transformation, protection, grounding, balance, and expanded awareness. It is associated with Sagittarius, Aries, and Cancer, as well as the Root and Sacral chakras. It has no traditional birth month. These references are symbolic and do not replace medical or therapeutic guidance.
