The Campo de Cielo meteorite field lies in the Gran Chaco region of Argentina, roughly 1,000 kilometres northwest of Buenos Aires. It was formed around 4,000 years ago when a metallic asteroid broke apart upon entering Earth's atmosphere and scattered thousands of iron-nickel fragments across 60 square kilometres of land.

Each fragment has been travelling through space for billions of years before landing there. Every piece of the Aerolite Collection by Alex Yuvero contains one of those fragments — cut, polished, and set in solid 925 sterling silver.

What Makes Every Aerolite Piece Unique

Meteorite from Campo de Cielo is composed primarily of iron and nickel, with a crystalline structure called the Widmanstätten pattern — visible after polishing. This pattern, formed over millions of years of slow cooling in space, cannot be replicated in any laboratory. No two fragments are identical in texture, grain, or the distribution of minerals across the surface.

This means that when you wear an Aerolite piece, you are wearing something that has never existed before and will never exist again in quite the same form.

How to Care for Aerolite Jewelry

Because meteorite is primarily iron, it is susceptible to rust if exposed to prolonged moisture. Keep your Aerolite piece dry. Wipe it immediately if it comes into contact with water. Store it in the provided Alex Yuvero box when not in use. With proper care, the meteorite surface retains its character indefinitely.
