This Vega band, in polished 14K rose gold, is inlaid with etched meteorite, and features a slightly domed profile and comfort fit interior. Handmade by award-winning artist Chris Ploof in his Massachusetts-based studio. 

From the Artist:
The meteorite used in Chris Ploof's designs is sourced exclusively from Namibia's Gibeon Meteorite, which flamed into our atmosphere some 30,000 years ago. The metal of the meteorite is estimated to be about four and a half billion years old, and is one of today's rare commodities. Due to its nickel content, Gibeon Meteorite is naturally resistant to stain and rust. Chris combines time-honored techniques with state of the art research and the finest materials to create one-of-a-kind rings. Each piece features a comfort fit interior to ensure the best possible fit.

Materials and Measurements:
14K rose gold, meteorite
Size 8.25
