Richard,
Look here for rings with meteorites.

This guy is a true artist. We got our wedding rings from him, handmade by
order. The nickel/meteorite will never touch your skin since they are mostly
on top of the rings.
Have fun viewing.
Best,
Jan

Subject: [meteorite-list] Meteorite rings - Nickel Content
My fiance' recently (and with no encouragement by me) came across rings
made of meteoritic iron and asked me if I would be interested in such a
ring for my wedding band. She had never seen them before and I of course
hadn't even considered bringing the idea up, but since she thinks its a
great idea for my ring, who am I to object?
My concern is the possibility of my developing a nickel allergy. AFAIK,
I'm not allergic to the metal, but she certainly is.
My preference would be to have my ring made of a solid billet of the Iron
used, but of course one that has in inlay of the Iron might be a better
choice to limit exposure.
It appears that the most commonly available rings are made using Gibeon &
Seymchan and some use Tambo Quemado. I'm just curious which of these three
have the lowest Nickel content?
Thanks
