About the dinosaur bone in this ring...
The Utah dinosaur gem bone in this wedding ring came from the Colorado Plateau and was a living animal during the Jurassic Period around 144 to 208 million years ago. The dinosaur bone we use in our rings is usually referred to as “gembone”. It is actually not dinosaur bone but is a combination of minerals that replaced the bone structure over time. Dinosaur bone is found in a rainbow of colors with the webbing color and cell size varying greatly from piece to piece. The varying cell size and colors create some truly unique patterns and virtually one of a kind pieces of dinosaur bone jewelry. The fossilized dinosaur bone can be composed of many different minerals including agate, jasper and calcite. The gembone color is determined by the combination of minerals present when the fossilized bone formed. Some colors are more rare than others with multicolor cells in a nice pattern being the most sought after. High quality dinosaur bone has a hardness of 6-7 on the Moh’s scale. Top grade gem dinosaur bone is eventually going to become impossible to get because, as you might have guessed, they aren’t making it any more.
*When purchasing for a wedding ring, it is recommended that you upgrade to Continuum sterling silver for added durability and tarnish resistance. Read more here:

Finger Size
It is very important that you give us your correct size when ordering as it is difficult to adjust the size without using a laser welder and risking damage to the ring. The paper finger sizers you might find on the internet and print out are not accurate. We have experimented and found that they vary from 1/4 to 3/4 of a size in error. Please visit a local jeweler or multiple jewelers and get your finger sized properly. We depend on you, the customer, to provide us with the correct size so please do not estimate or guess. Our rings are made to order in your specified size and are NOT RETURNABLE.
