Metals that add poise to your wedding bands
Wedding bands symbolize a bond for life. There was a time when wedding bands were exchanged as a
contract between two families who united their children in marriage. And in some cultures this round
ring meant a relationship for eternity. When you want to choose a wedding band, there are some simple
tips that help your get exactly what you want. Since this is a ring you’ll wear for the rest of your life you,
nothing but the best is what you desire!
Metals
Talking about the metal for your diamond engagement rings, you want something that you like, for one.
Secondly, the metal should go with your skin texture and look good if you are planning to mount a
diamond on it. Here’s a closer look at the metals that some of the best wedding bands are made of:
Gold
This is a very traditional choice. Surprisingly, even as a lot of other metals have made their way into the
wedding ring market, gold enjoys a place of its own. What many people don’t know is that because pure
gold is very soft, it is mixed with different metals to make it stronger for everyday wear. And because of
the mix, gold’s color also is changed eventually from pure to white gold, sometimes rose gold. When you
buy the gold, remember more pure the gold, more valuable.
Platinum
Over the years, Platinum has become a very popular option. This is definitely a more expensive choice
but much stronger. It’s resistance to wear and tear makes it a popular choice for everyday wear. Again,
if you have diamond on an engagement ring, vouch for platinum wedding bands. You don’t need
rhodium plating with it as it’s hypoallergenic.
Titanium
The durability of titanium makes it’s a perfect choice for men’s wedding bands. It is hypoallergenic and
strong. At the same time, this is a light weight choice which is also corrosion resistant. You can easily
mould and change its style and size which is why a lot of people unsure about the right size go for this.
But because they are so strong, a lot of people are suggested to avoid wearing these rings at the
workplace or when using machinery as they can’t be cut off easily.
Palladium
This is a relatively new metal which is known for its luster. Yes it’s a bit well priced but it’s strength and
shine makes up for the money you spend. An apt choice with diamond engagement rings, this comes in
many qualities which can be chosen according to one’s budget and taste.
While choosing the metal for wedding bands, you have to be careful about the type that suits your skin
well.
