AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A tungsten ring with the Aletai meteorite is a truly special object, because it combines a modern industrial material with a very ancient substance from space.

Tungsten: it is a very hard metal, highly resistant to scratches. It has a dark gray, almost anthracite color, and it maintains its luster over time. Precisely because of its hardness, it is difficult to deform.

Aletai Meteorite: comes from a meteorite fall that occurred in China, in the Aletai region. It is an iron meteorite, often worked to reveal the characteristic crystalline structures called “Widmanstätten figures,” visible as natural geometric intertwinings.

Weight: 8,80G
SIZE: 6cm CIRCUMFERENCE
