Obsidian Meteorite Ring

This ring gives grounding and at the same time a felling of lightness. The love and care with wich the ring is made makes an impact besides its beauty.

Let's start with the service: the website says that rings are usually shipped within 4-6 weeks after the order is placed. Well, I wrote an email to them and said I needed the ring within 5 1/2 week. Well, in LESS than 4 weeks, the order was shipped. Their Customer Service team (in my case, I was attended by a guy called Alex) answered all my emails promptly and with helpful information. For a small, independent business, their service is, in my experience, definitely a 10/10. I will order another ring from them as a gift.

As for the ring itself: it is a solid piece of a meteorite, what else has to be said? The pattern raised questions from EVERYONE I sat with, and the obsidian facts really give a nice rough yet crystal-like light reflecting property to it. I was afraid it would get rusty very easily as it is made of iron and thus the pattern would vanish, but that's not the case at all: rust naturally forms around the corners (due to your finger sweating etc), but all you need to do is apply any standard rust remover, brush it off and it's good as new. I recommend you then cover the ring with a thin layer of nail polish: it will protect it from rust AND renew its nice shiny quality! Beautiful ring. Expensive, yes, but 1) it is made from a rock that's been floating on space for LITERAL billions of years, and 2) it is cheaper and MUCH, MUCH more worth its price than your average gold ring out there. Beautiful pattern, comfortable feel (I recommend the liner), good width. 10/10

It’s a great looking well-crafted piece of art and science that you can wear. It fits well and has a good weight to it, and it doesn’t feel too thick. The Obsidian Meteorite ring looks like it was rough-cut from a space rock as compared to the flatter look of the Meteorite ring.

The color of my ring is different from that shown in the screen shot, but no two of these rings are cut from identical pieces of meteorite. My ring is more of a gray beige-ish color with silver sheen where the rough-cut facets show the internal structure.

For my ring the carbon fiber black liner worked better than a colored glow liner. Black may be a good liner color choice unless you know what your ring's color is going to be. A dark grey, black (like the screen shot), or an overall silver sheen ring would work well with colored liners. These are just my preferences, your preferences may differ.

It’s pretty cool to wear a ring cut from a meteorite that's likely been floating in space since the early days of the Solar System. You are wearing the history of the Solar System on your hand.
