Thank Your Lucky Stars

Making a wish on a shooting star gets a little more down to Earth with these delicate earrings by Andrea Vidmar, made from meteorite flakes. When you see a shooting star in the sky, it's not a star at all, but rocks that have broken away from asteroids and comets. Once these rocks hit the Earth's atmosphere, they burn up and the remaining rock falls to Earth as a meteor. That's where Andrea comes in and smooths out the meteorite flakes to create an organic silhouette that was thousands of years in the making. Handmade in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Make it a set! Pair these with the Shooting Star Meteorite Bracelet and Necklace.

Due to the handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.

Andrea Vidmar's unconventional childhood playing among Roman ruins and people watching sparked a constant curiosity from an early age. Fascinated by the abundance of natural treasures that surround her on a daily basis, the Las Vegas-based artist combines her curiosity with a keen eye to bring truly unique pieces into existence. "If I start my hunt on a mission to find items, I get into a headspace at looking at the world differently and it makes me live in the moment and connect," she says. Her driving motivation is to create wearable art to express herself and her sense of beauty; the ability to share this with others is her inspiration.

The idea is fantastic, but the quality doesn't seem great. The chain is really flimsy and not enforced at the top where it meets the bar that goes in your ear. So it actually hurts your finger to push these in your ear because you are pushing on the other side of that thin bar.
The meteorite pieces are tiny! As wide, or small, than the width of your pinky nail. They look so much bigger on screen.
