Our wedding bands are handcrafted to order. No two rings are identical. An exact shipping date may vary from order to order, but rings will typically be shipped 2 - 3 weeks from date of purchase and no later than 4 weeks from date of purchase.

The material used for the inlay is genuine lunar meteorite dust that is painstakingly collected from the cutting of classified and approved lunar meteorites. This material was ejected from our Moon when it was hit by another meteorite and became a meteorite itself when it hit the Earth. This dust was collected from the cutting of the main mass of NWA 14041, classified as a Lunar Feldspathic Breccia Meteorite as published the Meteoritical Society Bulletin Database .

These rings are a great and unique gift from out of this world.
Meteorites are older and rarer than diamonds.
Wear a piece of the Moon!*The ring cannot be re-sized, we recommend getting your ring sized by a jeweler before placing an order.

These Rings come with a gift/storage wooden box and a signed Certificate of Authenticity.

Top Meteorite offers 100% no questions asked 30 day return policy.
