When we think of jewelry and
rings the first thought is never men's rings! There are your traditional gold men’s
rings, but in the past 3 years contemporary metals have become very popular. There are over 10 different metal qualities. Vitalium
rings are a brand new ring quality to hit the market as of early 2013. Each
ring brings its own style and unique qualities. The following is an
overview of each metal quality.
 |
| Tungsten Ring |
Tungsten Rings – No ring can compete with tungsten’s durability. Light grey metal look, black tungsten will oxidize over time. (We do not recommend Black Tungsten rings)
 |
| Cobalt Ring |
Cobalt Rings - Its
platinum-look differentiates it from both tungsten and titanium. Unlike platinum however, Cobalt is very
scratch resistant. It is more scratch
resistant than titanium, but not quite as hard as tungsten.
 |
| Titanium Ring |
Titanium Rings - Titanium is
best known for its durability and light weight.
 |
| Ceramic Ring |
Ceramic Rings - Will forever
retain its color and shine. It is as scratch-resistant as tungsten carbide, but
without the weight.
 |
| Zirconium Ring |
Zirconium Rings – Best solution
for Black Tungsten Rings, Will never fade from its rich black tone.
 |
| Damascus steel Ring |
Damascus steel Rings - Created
with different grades of steel being bonded together and later acid treated to
create that unique pattern.
 |
| Carbon Fiber Ring |
Carbon Fiber Rings - Undoubtedly
the lightest ring on the market. Although they are light, they are extremely
durable. The tight weaves make our carbon fiber rings strong enough to support
the weight of a grown man standing on it.
 |
| Stainless Steel Ring |
Stainless Steel Rings - Has
a beautiful shine to it and can easily be polished in our store.
 |
| Mokume Gane Ring |
Mokume Gane Rings - translated
means wood grain metal. The lamination process involves securing several layers
(between 10-30) of colored gold and silver between blocks and heating it in a
kiln. With a careful combination of heat and pressure, the layers fuse but do
not melt.
 |
| Vitalium Ring |
Vitalium Rings - Whitest of
all contemporary metals, and will never oxidize or change color. It’s also 1/3
lighter then Tungsten Carbide rings.
