Found in a crater. Worn as an infinity.
In 1893 Henri Moissan pulled bright crystals from an Arizona meteorite crater and misread them. That mineral is grown in a lab now. A row of it runs along this infinity.

Six pictures. One minute.
Something hit Arizona
An iron meteorite struck the high desert and left a crater three quarters of a mile across. It is still there.
Henri Moissan went looking
The chemist who first isolated fluorine, and who would win the Nobel Prize for it, began sifting fragments from the crater.
Crystals that threw color
They threw more fire than anything he knew. He misread them. Crystal photograph: Beeblaine / Wikimedia Commons, CC BY 4.0.
He was wrong, and it was better
Eleven years of work proved them to be silicon carbide. In 1905 George Kunz named the mineral moissanite, after him.
Set along one band
A single row of small moissanites, grown in a lab and never mined, is set along one band of the infinity. The other is plain.
Joined at both tips
The infinity is polished bright and joined to a fine cable chain at both tips, a bezel-set stone on the chain to each side.
Side by side
Dispersion is how much colour a stone throws. Moissanite throws more than a diamond does.

A line with no end
Still, it is a fine chain with an infinity at the center. Moving, the row of stones breaks into color.
Up close, one row of stones along one band. Across the room, one bright line at the wrist.
One band set, one band plain
A single row of small moissanites runs along one band of the infinity and over the crossing. The other band is plain, polished silver. Dispersion 0.104: the light breaks into color.
A pair, one for each of you
Two bracelets, each in its own white box. Sisters. A best friend from school. A mother and a daughter. The same infinity on two wrists.
