Black Zirconium with Meteorite
Inlay
The ring shown is a black zirconium ring with an
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 about 4.6 billion
years old, when the Earth had not yet fully formed! The
government of Namibia has stopped export of the meteorite, so it
will become more rare as the years go by. The ring shown
is 7mm wide, and is available in 6,7, and 8mm widths.
