Gold
All things that glitter…are not gold. When contemplating a significant investment in a rather important piece of jewelry, it is imperative that you understand at least some factors before pulling the trigger on such a purchase.
Gold is a traditional precious metal and it is prized for its versatility. In its purest form, gold is too malleable to be used for jewelry. The quality and purity of the gold is measured by the karat, with 24 being the purest.
Modern trends have leaned into a process named ‘alloying’ which means other precious metals are added to the gold to produce, white gold and also rose gold. Both of these gold types are robust and make an excellent choice of band due to their durability.
1. Handmade Rustic Wedding Band
We love how this design captures the raw, untamed beauty of molten earth.
Solid 18k gold flakes fuse with oxidized sterling silver, while a hidden 14k gold lining adds both strength and a touch of quiet luxury. The rugged lava-like surface makes every ring one-of-a-kind, changing naturally over time to reflect its wearer. A striking choice for a wedding or promise band, complete with the option of free engraving inside.
2. Satin Finish in Black Titanium and 14k Yellow Gold
We love the sleek balance of contrasts in this design. Matte black titanium sets a bold backdrop, while polished 14k yellow gold edges bring warmth and refinement.

Each band is naturally one-of-a-kind, thanks to the unique patterns in the shed antler, making it a standout choice for someone who wants a wedding ring that feels bold, earthy, and truly personal.
4. Brushed Inlay Wedding Ring
For a classic, masculine ring that’s built to last, this subtle yet sturdy piece is a great choice. With width options ranging from 4–6mm and a variety of metal types and karats available, it’s easy to find the perfect match for his style.
Ideal for someone who’s not used to wearing jewelry, this ring offers timeless design with a solid, weighty feel — a traditional look made with lasting quality.

The hammered matte center creates a refined, understated look, while polished milgrain edges in contrasting gold add just the right amount of detail.

Gold Wedding Band FAQ
How is gold graded?
The term karat is a unit of measurement used to measure the purity of gold. Basically, the higher the karat the more pure the gold.
Similar to a diamond, the higher the Karat, the more dollar signs on the price tag. For example, 24 karat (also referred to as 24k) is known as pure gold. However, 24k gold likely won’t adorn your ring finger. In its pure state gold is pliable and very soft, and is generally considered unsuitable for jewelry such as wedding bands.
What’s so great about gold for my wedding band?
Gold has many desirable and unique characteristics that make it valuable both as a store of value and as an object of adornment in every country around the world. As for your wedding band, gold is a good choice because:
- it is non-allergenic
- it is easy to work and shape
- it won’t tarnish
- it will polish up to a mirror-like shine
Which gold karat should you choose?
From the question above you know that 24k gold is not really suitable for your wedding band. Which gold karat should you choose? Well, there are 3 different karat gold combinations which have become the standard for wedding bands: 18K, 14K, and 10K.
18K Gold Band
Contains 25% alloy and 75% gold; have a brighter yellow tone. 14K Gold Band 
Contains 41.7% alloy 58.3% gold; have a darker yellow-orange tone. 10K Gold Band 
Contains 58.3% alloy and 41.7% gold; paler in color with a less yellow tone. In short, in order to make gold jewelry that’s long lasting and durable, gold is mixed with other metals called alloys. These alloys make the gold stronger and even change it’s color if desired. The alloy may add strength, but it will also diminish the value and may even cause allergic reactions and/or tarnish. In order to try and achieve the best balance between the desirable and valuable properties of gold (including strength) the three standard gold combinations were created. All three of the gold karats are available in yellow, white, and rose gold. Typically, white gold alloys are stronger than yellow gold alloys, so a white gold ring will be slightly stronger and last a little longer than a yellow gold ring. With all the different options for men’s gold wedding bands available, make sure to choose the right karat grade to fit your budget, style, design and color — the possibilities of this wonderful metal are truly endless!
Gold wedding band pricing
A 10k gold ring is the most affordable wedding band because it has the least amount of gold content. At the opposite end of the spectrum, an 18k gold ring is considered the most posh and expensive. For a mid-range wedding band, stick with a 14k gold band that combines a balance of good quality and price.

Silver Wedding Band FAQ
Learn more about silver metal
Pure silver is in fact too soft of a material to be used for a wedding band. What you will come across when searching for a “silver wedding ring” is sterling silver. That means a .925 hallmark stamp on the inside of the ring.
- Sterling silver is 7.5% copper alloyed with 92.5% silver (by weight).
Why choose silver for a wedding band
No other metal has a natural brilliance and radiance than that of sterling silver. Compared to platinum or white gold, sterling silver rings are much more affordable. It is a malleable metal, which makes it a favorite choice among jewelers as design options are endless!
What does ‘flashing’ mean in silver?
The term ‘flashing’ has a naughty connotation. For wedding bands, you may come across silver rings that are treated with a process called flashing: the ring is plated with a thin coat of 99.999% pure silver to give it some extra shine along with a luster finish. This thin layer of pure silver will wear off fairly rapidly with everyday wear.
Ways to keep silver looking shiny
Another option is to treat sterling silver rings with rhodium plate (just like white gold bands), which will increase the shine and durability. As with flashing, the rhodium will wear off over time and the wearer will need to have the ring re-plated.
PROS
- No other metal has natural brilliance/radiance
- Most inexpensive precious metal
- Endless selection of styles
- Silver rings do not require rhodium plate
CONS
- Not as durable as other types of metals (i.e., palladium, gold, platinum, titanium, or tungsten)
- Does require special care or the ring will eventually tarnish
- Generally not recommended for everyday wear over long periods of time
- Silver wedding rings can scratch and bend under pressure
- Not a good choice if the wearer works in any capacity involving electricity as silver has the highest electrical and heat conductivity of any known metal
Platinum
Get yourself a platinum wedding band and you’ll be in good company – platinum was originally developed in the late 1770’s for royalty. Like laying the foundation of a house, the platinum ring on the left embodies the foundation and building blocks of your union as a couple.

Titanium for a Wedding Band
Titanium is a metallic element that can be found in abundance and therefore is made into many different products like golf clubs, air crafts, watches and even wedding bands.
- Found in the late 18th century, and fittingly named after the mythical Greek giants, the Titans, who personified different forces of nature and also ruled the earth.
- Titanium is one of the transitional elements on the periodic table and can be found found in many forms.
- Titanium is a lightweight, affordable metal, that has grown in popularity for grooms-to-be because it offers a luxurious appearance, as well as a high degree of strength.
- Bands can be found in very light grey/white color and their actual finish can change through different methods of polishing and or brushing.
An important feature to note is titanium’s strength-to-weight ratio. It is the highest out of all the transitional metals, which means that titanium is light weight, with a low density, but is extremely strong. So, if you are looking for a light weight ring that you won’t feel while wearing, than titanium bands are the one to choose.
Titanium can be split into four grades: 1 through 4. Grade one is the softest form of titanium while grade 4 is the hardest. The best type of titanium for wedding bands is Commercially Pure (CP) grade titanium, which is 99% pure. Grades between 2 to 4 CP work best for rings.
PROS
- Low maintenance and no need to re-coat
- Reasonably priced, much cheaper than gold or platinum
- Pure titanium is 100% hypoallergenic
- Can be colored into a variety of colors
- Strong, scratch resistant and durable
- Poor conductor of heat and electricity
- Light weight and easy to wear
CONS
- Cannot always be resized (costly if required)
- Titanium is a difficult metal to use for intricate designs, which mean ring designs are limited
