ABOUT MOKUMÉ GANE:
Mokumé Gane, meaning wood-grain metal, is an ancient metal-smithing technique first developed by a Japanese sword-smith. The process begins by kiln-fusing alternating layers of metals together, forming what is known as a billet. When removed from the kiln, the layers are forged to increase the bond. Once the billet has cooled, the pattern is carved, it is annealed (softened), and then it is rolled out to the desired thickness. The final product is made using hand-fabrication techniques similar to those used to create jewelry from a sheet of silver.

RING FITTING:
We highly recommend visiting at least two to three reputable jewelers to have your finger sized. They should use standard fit sizers, and they should agree on the size. It is also important to tell the jewelers how wide your ring will be since width is a determining factor in sizing.

Meteorite rings and rings with inlay cannot be re-sized.
