Black Tungsten Carbide Four times harder than steel. Scratch-proof.

Gibeon Meteorite Iron-nickel, four billion years old.

Engraved Signature MAISON KARDINAL inside, in the logo typography.

Lifetime Warranty On material and manufacturing.

Tungsten is four times harder than steel. It does not scratch and retains its black color.

At the center of the ring, a fragment of Gibeon meteorite. Iron-nickel that traveled for four billion years before falling into the sands of Namibia. Before this ring, no human hand had touched it.

Four and a half billion years before your finger.

Description

Le tungstène est quatre fois plus dur que l'acier. Il ne se raye pas et garde sa noirceur.

Au centre de l'anneau, un fragment de météorite Gibeon. Du fer-nickel qui a voyagé quatre milliards d'années avant de tomber dans le sable de Namibie. Avant cette bague, aucune main humaine ne l'avait touchée.

Quatre milliards et demi d'années avant votre doigt.

Entretien

Le tungstène ne ternit pas. La météorite Gibeon est traitée antioxydante avant sertissage. Un essuyage doux au chiffon microfibre suffit après les douches ou le sport. Évitez les bains chlorés prolongés.

Lifetime warranty

Every Maison Kardinal piece comes with a lifetime guarantee on its structure: tungsten, steel, and inlay setting. If the material fails, we replace it.

The guarantee does not cover intentional scratches, loss, or damage from extreme use. Tungsten is scratch-resistant in everyday use: it can crack under very strong mechanical pressure (dropping on concrete, heavy impact). In this case, we also replace it.

See full warranty details

You wear the piece for twenty, thirty, fifty years. It remains functional. This is our commitment, and it is engraved in the MAISON KARDINAL signature engraved on each ring.

What is covered

The structure of the ring, against manufacturing defects.

Detachment of an inlay (meteorite, wood, opal, gold flakes) if the cause is a manufacturing defect and not an impact.

Abnormal tarnishing of a material guaranteed to be unalterable (tungsten, 18k gold).

Breakage of the hand-setting on Aurore and Galaxie pieces.

The interior engraving of the engraved MAISON KARDINAL signature, for life.

What is not covered

Intentional breakage or major impacts (crushing, violent impact against a hard metal object). Tungsten is very hard but brittle: a violent impact can break it cleanly.

Loss or theft of the piece.

Size modification. Tungsten cannot be re-sized (the material is too hard to be recut). In case of incorrect size, we offer a free exchange within thirty days of delivery.

Normal wear and tear of wood (Bourbon) or opal (Galaxie) if the piece is exposed to prolonged immersion, chemicals, or thermal shock.

How to activate the warranty

Step 1. Find the engraved MAISON KARDINAL signature inside your piece, or indicated on the provenance booklet received at the time of purchase.

Step 2. Send an email to contact@maisonkardinal.com with your engraved MAISON KARDINAL signature, two photos of the piece (overview and view of the defect), and a description of the problem.

Step 3. We will respond within 48 hours with return instructions.

Step 4. After receipt and expert assessment, we will replace the piece identically or repair it as possible. The interior engraving will be transferred to the new piece.

Lead time: between two and five weeks depending on the piece and material availability.

Value

Method 1, With an existing ring

The most reliable method if you already own a ring that fits you well.

1

Choose a well-fitting ring

Select a ring that you wear comfortably on the desired finger. Make sure it is not too tight and does not spin.

2

Measure the inner diameter

Place the ring flat on a ruler and measure the inner diameter in millimeters (from one inner edge to the other).

3

Consult the chart

Transfer the measurement to the chart above or use the converter. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.

Method 2, With a string or strip of paper

Ideal if you don't have a reference ring.

1

Wrap the string around your finger

Take a string or a thin strip of paper. Wrap it around the base of the desired finger, passing over the knuckle.

2

Mark the crossing point

With a pen, mark the exact spot where the string crosses. The string should be snug but not tight; it should be able to slide over the knuckle.

3

Measure the length

Unroll the string and measure the length between the two marks in millimeters. This is your circumference. Enter it into the converter above.

Important Tips

Measure at the right time

Your finger size changes throughout the day. Measure at the end of the day, when your fingers are at their largest. Avoid measuring when you are cold (shrunken fingers) or after physical exertion (swollen fingers).

Our rings are comfort fit

All Maison Kardinal rings are comfort fit (rounded interior). They slide on more easily than standard flat-interior rings. If you are used to classic rings, your comfort fit size may be the same or half a size smaller.

Between two sizes?

Always choose the larger size. A slightly larger ring will be comfortable, while a ring that is too tight will be impossible to wear. Our tungsten rings cannot be resized, so choosing the correct size is essential.

Tungsten cannot be resized

Unlike gold or silver, tungsten is an extremely hard metal that cannot be enlarged or reduced. In case of an incorrect size, we offer a free exchange within 30 days.

La rencontre du tungstène et de la météorite

When tungsten meets meteorite

The former comes from mines, the latter from the sky. Both are here to stay.

Four times harder than steel, tungsten is scratch-proof and retains its dark luster. At its center, a fragment of the Gibeon meteorite, iron-nickel forged in the heart of a star that disappeared four billion years ago.

Four billion years

The Gibeon meteorite fell into the sands of Namibia in a shower of iron-nickel. Before this ring, no human hand had touched it.
