Forget about getting the whole world in a ring, you can go for the whole universe. This stunning piece of jewelry is made from a freaking meteorite and displays beautiful gemstones which represent the planets of our solar system. Wow.
This ring features a complete band of Gibeon Meteorite framed and mounted in an 18k gold band. The meteorite has been etched with nitric acid to reveal the characteristic patterns, or Widmanstatten figures, of iron meteorites, and set with 9 gemstones representing the planets of our Solar System. Mercury is represented by a rust colored Sapphire, Venus a golden Sapphire, Earth an irradiated blue Diamond, Mars a Ruby, Jupiter an Opal, Saturn a Cats Eye Chrysoberyl with an inlaid 24k gold ring, Uranus a green Sapphire, Neptune a blue Sapphire and Pluto a black Diamond.
The coolest part is that the band of meteorite is separate from the interior gold ring. The planets can rotate around your finger. Yeah, I’m drooling too. You can invest in this tiny universe at a starting price of $3,600.

Three great sci-fi staples that go great together. This beautiful ring is the creation of Harpuahound over at Engraver’s Cafe. It was a custom project where the buyer requested the iconic TARDIS, the space shuttle and the Starfleet logo be mixed into the overall design. I think any sci-fi fan would be more than happy to be the owner of this beautiful work of art.

Wedding rings are often plain silver or gold bands. There’s something to be said for the classic style, but there’s a lot more to be said for a ring that expresses your love for a fandom as well as your spouce. The designer of the Indiana Jones engagement ring, Homer Liwag, has also designed a Star Wars wedding band. It seems to really tie in the lightsaber hilt look while being subtle. It’s the definition of geek chic.
It would be nice if some these designs were available to the public. There is not nearly enough Star Wars jewelry out there, let alone Star Wars wedding jewelry.

The list of geeky things that should exist but don’t is endless. You can add this TARDIS inspired ring design to said list. Tumblr user Pathetic Peripatetic made the digital rendering in a fit of boredom. The designer states the following about the ring’s features:
“The three round stones are the Police Box sign, the two sets of four baguettes symbolize the windows, and a small princess cut below that to symbolize the instructions found on the front of the Police Box.”
If this design were actually produced, I predict it would be the choice of every companion.

This engagement ring isn’t what it appears to be. From the front, it looks like your standard diamond. From the side however, you’ll see it actually transforms into a Decepticon! I’m not sure why you would want to associate the word “deception” with ring that’s supposed to symbolize eternal love and happiness, but hey—everyone has different tastes.

If you’re tired of hearing the word steampunk, this ring might change your tune. This bronze ring actually turns into a telescope and a magnifying glass with a compass. It’s functional and incredibly cool looking (bonus: no gears randomly glued on).

I bought a high school ring and never wore it—but I would wear the hell out of this handmade Hogwarts ring. In fact, I would start mailing letters again—sealing them with wax that I embossed with it.
