I have purchased some Brenham Meteorite from the Meteorite Men, made famous on the Discovery Science Channel. If you purchase a ring made of Brenham Meteorite you will receive an "Authentic Certificate" that they provided. The cost is $119 extra.
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).
The Meteorite Inlay shows a fantastic Widmanstatten pattern and is solid, with NO JOINTS.
It has been etched with an acid to reveal the characteristic patterns, or Widmanstatten figures, of iron meteorites.No two etched meteorites will have the exact same pattern.
RING IN THE PHOTO:
Meteorite inlay is 4 mm wide.
Ring Width, as pictured, is 7mm.
The width of the titanium edge can be reduced or extended as you wish, at no extra cost.
No 2 Meteorite pieces will look the same.
Available Ring Sizes: 3 to 16, including 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 sizes.
All rings have a comfort fit.
Titanium is not re-sizable.

RING FITTING:
We highly recommend that you get your ring size measured by at least 2 reputable jewelers that agree on the size as Titanium rings are not re-sizable.

**Meteorites are almost never "perfect". Please expect that there might be small limperfections/marks/inclusions visible in the meteorite. Their imperfection makes them unique and beautiful. Meteorites are formed as they travel through space and millions of years later they may land on earth. IF YOU PREFER A PERFECT METEORITE, please leave a note for me in the "Message to Seller" box during checkout and I'll send you an additional paypal invoice of $149.00.

****Green Latern:
This ring is like your own Green Lantern Meteor full of magical powers.
In the movie the first Green Lantern was known as Alan Scott.
Scott was an engineer who found a green lantern containing a flame of a green meteor, which fell to Earth thousands of years ago. The flame instructed him how to create a ring from the lantern, which was filled with magical powers and had to be recharged.
