Why anyone would want to wear a ring made from a meteor or dinosaur bone may be absurd to some, but you’d be surprised at exactly how fashionable and durable they are. A meteor isn’t from our planet so you can say that is one thing that is quite remarkable about yourself if something like that is wrapped around your finger. You’ll be wearing something that has traveled through space. How cool can that be?!
What Makes Meteorite Rings Unique?
We don’t see meteors falling from the sky every day so these kinds of rings are very rare. One of the most popular meteorite rings is one made of Gibeon Meteorite. Gibeon meteorite fragments have been banned in 2004 so today, you can only find the rings made from the pre-ban fragments.
A dinosaur bone ring, on the other hand, is unique in such a way that you’ll be wearing something that has an ancient material. Dinosaur bones have been buried in sediment for over a couple of million years and they have been infused with minerals. This combination has created beautiful and colorful fossils and each dinosaur bone ring is a one-of-a-kind piece of art.
No two rings will ever look identical. Most dinosaur rings are inlaid with authentic bone pieces and are set in the classic tungsten metal. You can find them in various colors. If you choose a dinosaur bone ring for a wedding band, it’s a great way to show that your love is a lasting one.
Like the people we love in our lives, what makes meteorite rings really special are their imperfections. All meteorites have small imperfections. They are called marks or inclusions. As part of the meteorite’s formation when they travel through space, these small imperfections make the material quite unique and valuable. That is what makes them authentic. For these reasons, no two meteorite rings will ever be alike and any that you wear will be one of a kind.

A British explorer found it being made into arrowheads and spears in the early 1800s. The Gibeon meteorite comes from broken asteroid fragments or an exploded star and according to radiometric dating, the age is around 4 billion years.
A meteorite ring is so distinctive because of its unique pattern which is a set of neat crisscrossing lines when they are etched in acid.

Choosing Your Ring Size
When choosing the size of your meteorite and dinosaur bone ring, it’s important to be accurate. The materials of these rings are not suitable for adjustments so you cannot have them enlarged or reduced in size.
Once you place your order, you will be sent 2 plastic sizing rings so you can accurately measure the size of your ring. These rings are also available in quarter sizes.
Caring for Your Meteorite Ring
Meteorite rings are extremely durable and are resistant to rust. Meteorite rings are iron-based so over time, they can eventually rust. This is especially true when they are exposed to acid. But if they do rust, there are easy ways to restore them back to their natural beauty.
Using an old toothbrush, you can apply some CLR cleaner that can be bought from a hardware store to scrub off the rust.
You should also be careful when wearing your meteorite ring in places that are filled with super magnets like in some laboratories. If you work in such environments, it’s best to leave your meteorite and dinosaur ring at home because the iron in your ring will be drawn to the magnet.
More About Meteorites
Basically, a meteorite is a piece of iron or other composites that fell from outer space on our planet. It had gone through the earth’s atmosphere without totally deteriorating. Most of the meteorites that have been observed on earth came from somewhere called the asteroid belt. This is between the planets, Mars and Jupiter. Other times, some meteorites can come from farther away, some even possibly from the moon and Mars.
The extreme density of meteorites makes them feel heavier than ordinary rocks. However, skilled artisans have developed ways to make them lightweight. They transform the meteorite’s natural look into a meteorite plate to make it appear like a piece of metal. A protective coating is then applied. This is what will prevent rust and give the outer surface a silver-like appearance. The result is stunning and unique meteorite jewelry.
Meteorite Wedding Bands
Today, meteorite wedding bands are becoming more popular. Meteorites are rare and they have a higher value than other metals like gold. It is also not very common to have a wedding band made of a meteorite so it’s a great way to make your wedding unique. It’s a great investment for a piece of jewelry that will last a lifetime as a symbol of a couple’s undying love.
Conclusion
Meteorite and dinosaur bone rings are truly unique and beautiful. Wearing a meteorite ring says something quite remarkable about yourself. When a part of outer space and ancient history is wrapped around your finger, you are wearing fashion that is out of this world. You’ll be wearing something that has traveled through space. They are great in settings like titanium that makes them even stronger. It’s a great symbol of love and a perfect choice for a wedding band.
