►ABOUT THE STONES:
Campo del Cielo translates to "Field of Heaven" Though it fell to Earth more than 4000 years ago, this meteorite was first discovered in 1576 by a Spanish military expedition, searching for a source of iron.

Scientists believe that - like other iron meteorites - the Campo del Cielo mass originated within the Asteroid Belt located between Mars and Jupiter, and probably formed around the same time as the earth: some 4.5 billion years ago.

Only about 5% of meteorites found on Earth are iron, and the Campo del Cielo material is highly collectable. Each is about 5 grams. They have been purchased from Argentina from a member of the International Meteorite Collectors Association (IMCA). The IMCA adheres to the highest standards of meteorite identification and proper labeling practices.

► SIZE (NEW)!
Fresh from the 2024 Tucson show, we now have some super XL size meteorites! If you're wearing a space rock on your cuff, we already know you like being really over the top - and yes, more is more!

►ABOUT THE MAKER:
Each pair of cufflinks is unique and one of a kind, and made by hand by printmaker, metalworking artist and Cyberoptix founder, Bethany Shorb. I work between my home base in Detroit, MI and a mobile RV studio Arizona, where I source all our stone, crystal, shell and fossil specimens there and at the Tucson and Quartzsite AZ gem shows. All are intuitively sourced in person, from only the most reputable individual suppliers. I never buy random lots because I'm a perfectionist!

► HOW DO I KNOW WHICH PAIR I'M GETTING?
All our cufflinks are handmade with natural stones; they're gifts from the Earth (and Space!), and all vary between specimen to specimen. Each cufflink set is unique and one of a kind, and no two natural stones will ever be the same, that's a big part of the joy and fun of them! If your heart is set on the certain look of a stone shown, please contact us for specific stone size/shape and color requests before purchasing (not after!) - these photos are just an example of many many we have in stock and I make almost daily for you. We can't Glamour Shot style photograph each pair individually and still offer them at this price.

►NEED MORE?
Makes a perfect gift for any human that has a cuff that needs fancying! Got a super special occasion? Fathers of the bride, grooms and groomsmen - if only one set is shown as available, more similar stones can usually be sourced and I can make plenty more, we can make sets for wedding parties or groomsmen gifts. Please contact us for specific stone customization requests.
