Brushed Black Tungsten Carbide Four times harder than steel. Scratch-resistant.

Engraved Signature MAISON KARDINAL inside, in the logo typography.
Lifetime Warranty On material and manufacturing.

Brushed black tungsten carbide. Side groove inlaid with Gibeon meteorite fragments. Polished beveled edges. Matte finish.

The fragment is not centered. It slides along the side of the ring, where the light catches it. A half-hidden presence, revealed with movement.

The Gibeon meteorite fell in the sands of Namibia four billion years ago, in a shower of iron-nickel forged at the heart of a vanished star.

Four billion years in an eight-millimeter band.

Care

Tungsten does not tarnish. The Gibeon meteorite is treated with an anti-oxidant before setting. Gentle wiping with a microfiber cloth is sufficient after showering or sports. Avoid prolonged chlorinated baths.

Description

Tungstène carbure noir brossé. Rainure latérale incrustée de fragments de météorite Gibeon. Bords biseautés polis. Finition mate.

Le fragment n'est pas posé au centre. Il glisse sur le côté de l'anneau, là où la lumière le surprend. Une présence à demi cachée, qui se révèle au mouvement.

La météorite Gibeon est tombée dans le sable de Namibie il y a quatre milliards d'années, dans une pluie de fer-nickel forgée au cœur d'un astre disparu.

Quatre milliards d'années dans une bande de huit millimètres.

Entretien

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

Lifetime warranty

Each Maison Kardinal piece comes with a lifetime warranty on its structure: tungsten, steel, inlay setting. If the material is defective, we replace it.

The warranty does not cover deliberate 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 such a 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.

Fees

Warranty service is free of charge. Return shipping costs are your responsibility unless there is an error on our part.

The rings are custom-made in our partner workshops specializing in tungsten carbide and Damascus steel. Each piece undergoes quality control before shipment from our storage facility.

A trail, rather than a banner

The fragment is not placed in the center. It slides to the side of the ring, in an asymmetrical groove.

A half-hidden presence, revealed through movement. The oldest material in the world, discreetly present.

L'origine du fragment

The origin of the fragment

The Gibeon meteorite is made of iron-nickel forged in the heart of a star that disappeared four billion years ago. It fell in the sands of Namibia.

Four billion years in an eight-millimeter strip.
