10K gold is harder than 14K and 18K, but 14K and 18K are more pure and therefore more valuable. 18K gold has the highest purity and is the most valuable, but it is also the softest among the three. While a 10K gold ring will be nearly identical in color to a 14K gold ring, an 18K gold ring will have a richer, deeper yellow hue due to its higher gold content.

We will send a ring sizing kit to you to ensure the correct fit before creating your ring.

Since our rings are handcrafted to order, it is important for you to use one of our ring sizers and not depend on a traditional jewelers’ sizing kit to get an accurate size. Our rings are different because many are wider than traditional bands and most of our rings come in a comfort fit style.
If you haven't used our ring sizing kit, select that option and we'll send a FREE ring sizing kit to you with your order. We will begin production on your ring once we have your correct size and width.
All rings are made to order and ship within the timeframe shown on the product page. We offer free US shipping and a 30-day return policy on non-custom items. Read our full return policy here.
The Story Behind This Ring
Weathered Whiskey Barrel & Meteorite Dust
Crafted for the man who loves to explore, The Dark Star features inlays of weathered whiskey barrel and meteorite dust for a one-of-a-kind look. The classic touch of the gold band ensures that this unique piece will stand the test of time, just like the love it represents.
We specialize in creating wedding bands made from authentic whiskey barrel wood sourced from some of the most popular whiskey brands. Our artisans have developed a unique weathering process to give each ring a distinctive, charred appearance that evokes the rich color of the inside of a whiskey barrel.
The Muonionalusta meteorite is estimated to be the oldest known meteorite. First unearthed in Sweden in 1906, only 40 fragments have ever been identified. When ground, it produces a fine black dust that sparkles with silver iron flecks — a design that evokes the splendor of the night sky.
This ring is handcrafted to order in our Huntersville, North Carolina workshop from SCS-certified 100% recycled gold.

Dark Star for a Ranger
★★★★★
This is an absolutely stunning ring that my husband is SO proud of. He has started checking other people’s rings out and loves how his stands out in such a special way. The meteorite in it seems to change color and compliment whatever he’s wearing which is a neat addition.
While he has stated many times he didn’t “need” something so nice he truly was moved by the thought and uniqueness of this gem—-he now hates taking it off even for the gym because he says he feels special and loved when wearing it. We are both military and supporting a veteran owned business was a huge plus for us on top of the rings quality!
Beautifully Crafted, Attention to Detail
★★★★★
The ring was spectacular, just as beautiful in person as on the website. Loved the attention to detail that was taken by the staff to get the size perfect. Thanks guys!
Amazing!
★★★★★
This was the perfect ring! Customer services was wonderful and very helpful. I had to send the ring back to get resized, the whole process was smooth and was able to get the ring back in perfect time. Beautiful craftsmanship as well.

This is our second ring from Rustic and Main (my husband lost the first) and I don’t think anyone could have made a more perfect ring for my husband. Not only is it beautiful, but it has character and is made from unique materials which got him so excited when I explained each part to him and gave him the certificate of authenticity.
