Meteorite Square

The ring shown is a titanium ring machined to a square shape with a single inlay of genuine Gibeon Meteorite that fell to Earth in prehistory. The meteorite was discovered in Namibia in South Africa in 1838. It has a unique crystalline grain structure called Widmanstatten lines that were caused by the meteorite slowly cooling over millions of years as it hurtled through space. It is estimated to be over 4 billion years old! The government of Namibia has stopped export of the meteorite, so it will become more rare as the years go by. The ring shown has a Brushed finish on the outside.
