At Temple and Grace, we make our Meteorite jewellery in Gibeon meteorite. This form of meteorite is known to be more stable and is less prone to rusting. However, care must still be taken to ensure that meteorite is either not exposed or has less exposure to water such as pools and beaches. Exposure to pool water makes a meteorite ring more prone to rusting owing to the chlorine present in the water. Once you have completed the above process, dry the ring with the soft cotton cloth and allow it to dry in normal air for about 30 minutes.
