A Clever Solar System Necklace Made Up of Semi Precious Planets Moving Towards a Jade Sun

Solar Orbit Necklace

ThinkGeek, the purveyor of many fine novelty products, is currently offering the universe at one’s fingertips with an exclusive Solar Orbit Necklace that features semi-precious bead planets, including Pluto, moving in their respective paths around a dyed jade sun.

Celebrate our friendly neighborhood star stuff with this Solar Orbit Necklace. Its 21″ length features not only the Sun and all the planets (including the one that got voted off the island), but also our Moon and the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. And there’s a little star shaped charm hanging off the 3″ extender, like a comet. For those who are about to complain that the beads are not to scale, here’s the deal: we wanted you to be able to lift your head despite the asteroids in the belt being visible. We think that’s a fair trade-off. For our customers with nickel allergies: This item may contain nickel.
