Meteorite Tube Bead

This large bead (just over 1/2" in length) is made of meteorite with a thin band of sterling silver that holds four cabochons of moldavite.  The meteorite is from the Muonionalusta meteorite that fell into, what became, the northern counties of Sweden.  The moldavite cabs are from the Czech Republic.  Moldavite is an impact stone; created when a meteorite impacts Earth.  

This bead looks great on a silver chain, but would also work on thicker silver or leather bracelets.
