 Put a piece of the stars in orbit around your finger whenever you wear this Offset Titanium Meteorite Ring, an authentic piece of Gibeon meteorite jewelry! This design is a contemporary favorite and features a rounded dome profile that showcases a cool offset 2mm wide inlay. The inlay makes a perfect contrast to the durable titanium sides and is taken from an actual slice of the Gibeon meteorite! This rare material, discovered in Africa in 1836, is over 4-billion-years-old and is unlike anything else on Earth! The material in these rings hasn't just been around forever, it will last forever too! Want to make this Gibeon meteorite jewelry even better? You can customize your meteorite ring to create a one-of-a-kind work of art that's been billions of years in the making! Select any standard ring size between 3 and 13 for a comfortable fit -- and if your finger is a non-standard measurement, don't worry, custom sizes are also available upon request! Also select a width for your ring between 7 and 9mm, and don't forget to choose from a brushed or polished finish for the titanium base (shown here in the 7mm width with a polished finish). Last, immortalize your ring with free optional engraving of up to 25 characters! About This Design: Take a closer look at the inlay shown here and you'll notice a seemingly random series of different shades and small lines that almost look like angular scratches. What are they? They're called Widmanstatten patterns, and the only place they can ever be seen are on pieces of actual meteorites that have been cleaned with nitric acid. How did they form? When the asteroid that became the Gibeon was blasted from the debris of an extinct planet or moon, it was a super-heated chunk of rock that slowly cooled over hundreds of millions of years. This pattern was formed as a result of that cooling. The story of the Gibeon is an adventure nearly as old as the sun and the planets of our solar system.
