Christmas is coming, and I would like to give a small meteorite stone to my 8-year-old daughter, who seems to really like space so I want to encourage that and I think she'd love it!

I'm thinking of something small that can be worn on a necklace.

Does anybody know a reputable and legit place to buy these online in Europe?

Thanks!

i have looked around the web and i saw a couple online. I'm sure you can find one pretty easily. I also know that for sure you can buy them in planetarium's shops. Bellissima idea per tua figlia, sarà sicuramente felicissimasmile. CS

The owner of Astonomics (astronomics.com) seems to frequently have some for sale.  He is US based however…

Hello Salvatore,

in a nutshell, I have had very good experiences with Meteorite-Shop.com.
The pictures on the website and the description correspond 1 to 1 with reality.
Have shopped there several times and was okay every time...
