நிலாப்பொடி · Nilāppodi — Moonlight Powder Meteorite Pendant

Captured moonlight — and every grain of it is real.

Nilāppodi means moonlight powder. The finest grade we seal: pale, powder-soft particles of the Campo del Cielo meteorite, gathered by hand into a round glass bulb that seems to hold a light of its own. Older than the Moon's craters, softer than sand, and quiet in the way only very old things are. It asks nothing of you but to be noticed.

• Genuine Campo del Cielo meteorite — powder-fine dust of an iron meteorite recovered in Argentina
• Hand-sealed round glass dust vessel, finished with a cork stopper
• Silver-tone or gold-tone chain
• Numbered authenticity card — meteorite name, origin, and batch
• Made by hand, in small batches, in India

It arrives ready to be given. The card carries the story, so you never have to explain it.

Care — this is a sealed keepsake. Keep the vessel dry, let perfume settle before it meets the chain, and rest it in its pouch between wearings.
