I actually found this men’s ring while flipping through the back of an Astronomy magazine. I love meteorite jewelry, and since this has planets on it as well, I immediately pulled up the website.
This ring features a complete band of Gibeon Meteorite framed and mounted in an 18k gold band. The meteorite has been etched with nitric acid to reveal the characteristic patterns, or Widmanstatten figures, of iron meteorites, and set with 9 gemstones representing the inner planets of our Solar System. Mercury is represented by a rust colored Sapphire, Venus a golden Sapphire, Earth an irradiated blue Diamond, Mars a Ruby, Jupiter an Opal, Saturn a Cats Eye Chrysoberyl with an inlaid 24k gold ring, Uranus a green Sapphire, Neptune a blue Sapphire and Pluto a black Diamond. What really makes this ring special is that the band of meteorite spins independent of the gold ring, so when it is on, the planets rotate around the wearer’s finger.
The price isn’t for the faint of heart, but it is quite beautiful..!

I’ll be picking up that ring for my birthday. It’s not everday that I see something that actually interests me. Whoever designed it is a creative genius.
Enjoy! It’s a beautiful piece, I’d love to see pics of the rest of the planets. :)
What can I say to this? It’s enchanting, it’s gorgeous. It makes me think of talismans or good luck charms. If I wore it, and rubbed it, would a genie appear? Probably not, but it sure would attract some attention. I like to stand out that way sometimes. Other times, I want to blend in and keep it on the down low. It depends on the day.
Me and my Fiancee have just agreed that this is gonna be our wedding bands!
Awesome choice, best of luck!

See the comment above yours, or the link in the post for purchase information — this is a blog, not a store. :)
I spoke to the creator of this ring on the phone. I believe the gold version costs about $5,000. He said he could also make it out of silver or platinum, but platinum is significantly more difficult to work with and the price ends up being a little over $7,000. Also, the fact that it has a meteorite ring around it means that it’s impossible to re-size, so it’s extremely important to get it right the first time. This is the most creative ring I’ve ever seen though.
My mistake, the price for the gold version is $3900.
It’s a beautiful piece, I’m envious of anyone who gets one! :) Personally I think I’d prefer the gold version to platinum, because I like the contrast between the gold and meteorite. And as you said – make sure to get the right size, because there’s no adjusting it.
I don’t think I’ve seen anything like this before! It’s certainly very unique – ideal for anyone looking for something special.
