Introduction: The Allure of Meteorite Rings

When it comes to symbolising eternal love, what could be more fitting than a ring crafted from materials as old as the solar system itself? Meteorite wedding rings have captured the hearts of couples worldwide, offering a unique blend of cosmic wonder and earthly craftsmanship. At Forge & Lumber, we've harnessed the beauty of these celestial fragments to create wedding bands that are truly out of this world.

In this article, we'll explore the fascinating world of meteorite wedding rings, showcasing our exquisite collection and helping you understand why these cosmic creations might just be the perfect symbol of your love story.

Types of Meteorites Used in Forge & Lumber Rings

At Forge & Lumber, we primarily use Muonionalusta iron meteorite in our rings. This ancient meteorite, estimated to be about 4.5 billion years old, fell in northern Scandinavia and is prized for its distinctive Widmanstätten pattern.

Did you know? The Muonionalusta meteorite is one of the oldest known meteorites, predating the Earth itself!

The use of meteorites in jewelry has a rich history, dating back centuries. Today, these cosmic materials are more accessible than ever, allowing couples to wear a piece of the universe on their fingers.

Find Your Ring Size

How It Works:

Click to expand

  1. Measure Your Finger or an Existing Ring:

    • Finger Circumference: Use a strip of paper or a piece of string and wrap it around the base of your finger. Mark where the ends meet and measure the length against a ruler. Input this measurement into our tool.
    • Inner Diameter of an Existing Ring: If you have a ring that fits perfectly, simply measure its inner diameter (from edge to edge of the ring's inside circle). Enter this measurement for an accurate size conversion.

  2. Get Your Global Size: Our application instantly converts your measurement into the most commonly used international ring sizing standards - US, UK, French, German, Japanese, and Swiss. This feature makes our tool perfect for both local and international shoppers.

  3. Shop with Confidence: Once you have your ring size, explore our exquisite collection with the assurance that your chosen piece will fit as if it were made just for you.

Tips for Accurate Measurement:

  • Measure your finger at the end of the day when it is likely to be at its largest size.
  • Avoid measuring when you're cold, as fingers can be smaller.
  • If your knuckle is significantly larger than the base of your finger, measure both and select a size in between to ensure the ring will fit.
