Malaysian Blackwood... isn't entirely black. And that’s good! The streaks of green, tan, and even reddish/orange hues give this wood a unique look. It is a member of the ebony family, and from what little I can info I can find on it, it has become increasingly popular among guitar makers. Those must be some expensive guitars....
You may, however, choose any wood you see in the shop for the 3mm inlay. Just include your choice along with your size in the "message to seller" section at checkout.
Because the stripe of wood is so narrow, only the highest quality, most figured material is selected.
Wikipedia says "Malachite is a copper carbonate hydroxide mineral, with the formula Cu2CO3(OH)2. This opaque, green banded mineral crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system, and most often forms botryoidal, fibrous, or stalagmitic masses, in fractures and spaces, deep underground, where the water table and hydrothermal fluids provide the means for chemical precipitation. Individual crystals are rare but do occur as slender to acicular prisms. Pseudomorphs after more tabular or blocky azurite crystals also occur." I don’t know what half of those words mean. Its a pretty green rock.
This ring is flanked by 6al-4v grade 5 titanium, preferred among jewelers.
Sizing
Titanium ring sizes run from 4 to 16 including quarter sizes. I highly recommend going to a jewelry counter to determine your size, even if you already know your size. "Do it yourself" ring sizing methods (string, etc.) should absolutely not be trusted. Be sure to be measured using the width you plan to order".

This ring can only be made in ONE width: 6mm
