Aloha Everyone,

Now that I'm finally happy with its appearance and have most of the
bugs worked out of it, I'm pleased to announce the launch of my new
site: www.meteoritetreasures.com

I've spent months preparing the site, loading inventory and writing
code and making alterations, but it's functional and attractive now, I
think. I've still got a lot of inventory to load, but please have a
look.

My inventory is composed primarily of meteorite jewelry. All of the
jewelry is made by my family...my mother, my wife, and myself. The
glass work has by far been the most difficult due to the different
cooling speeds of glass vs. nickel-iron meteorites...oftentimes
causing the glass to break or crack. We've been perfecting our
techniques and developing a new line of encapsulated meteorites.
These aren't the type that have a plastic pop-top that allows you to
insert material...I mean we hand-craft a sealed glass capsule with a
meteorite inside and fashioned it into a pendant. Most at the moment
are small campos and Sikhote-Alin's...I do have one Tatahouine that's
not on the site yet.

Our jewelry inventory includes pendants, earrings, sets, bookmarks,
keychains, martian jewelry, and tie-tacs.

Also available on the site in authentic (non-jewelry) form is Daule,
Fukang, Campo del Cielo,Uruacu, DaG 476, Karoonda, Buzzard Coulee
(w/copy of papers), Tatahouine, Suizhou, NWA 1929, Chergach, and more!

I also carry a line of supplies including Riker boxes and Silica Gel
Desiccant packs. Those who inquired about the extra small rikers,
just to let you know, I will be having them made in the very near
future and will announce to the list when they are available.

Of course I will offer a 10% discount off of all web prices upon
checkout--use coupon code "metlist" for your 10% discount off your
subtotal. Shipping is only $2.00 total for the US no matter what you
order and only $3.00 for international customers.

Thank you all for looking.


Aloha,

Matthew Martin
