Gibeon meteorites are made of an iron-nickel alloy, but contain also cobalt and phosphorus. The crystal structure of this meteorite is a classic example of fine octahedrite and the Widmanstatten pattern aesthetically appreciated both by collectors and jewel designers.
Gibeon is a meteorite fallen in prehistoric times in Namibia. It was named after the nearest town: Gibeon (Namibia).

Take a close look at the Fantastic looking Widmanstatten figures in the close-up photo.
This Titanium ring has a solid inlay of meteorite that goes all the way around the band. The meteorite has been etched with an acid to reveal the characteristic patterns, or Widmanstatten figures, of iron meteorites. This is in subtle contrast to the color of the titanium.
I have made many meteorite rings and therefore have a lot of experience working with meteorites and if done wrong could destroy your investment years down the line.
No two etched meteorites will have the exact same pattern.

Muonionalusta meteorite is a rare iron that was originally found in 1906 near Kiruna, Sweden. This beautiful meteorite is classified as a fine (IVA) Octahedrite, and has spectacular etch patterns. Muonionalusta is only rarely found on the meteorite market as the strewn field is within the Arctic Circle, making searching for it very difficult. The total known weight of Muonionalusta is unknown, and until recently, most has been locked up in Museum collections, with very little in private hands.
Consistence: Fe, 8.42 % Ni, 2.24 ppm Ga, 0.133 ppm Ge, 1.6 ppm Ir
Etched Muonionalusta Meteorites are prone to rust therefore a special formula will be applied as protection before it is shipped.
