Men's Titanium Rings Are Affordable And Beautiful

A titanium wedding band represents one of the most advanced forms in modern jewelry. The structure of the ring so resistant to general wear and scratches that many men will choose to wear their ring even when doing manual labor. An important consideration when buying titanium wedding rings is therefore how well they hold up compared to the softer gold wedding bands. Due to their high sentimental value, most people want a band that will hold up to a lifetime of daily wear and be as comfortable years later as when they were first put on their finger.

Titanium rings are strong and durable. As they can be scratched only by diamonds or some other hard material, they are good for everyday use. Moreover, any minor blemish can be removed with a quick refinish. This is probably why they are popular and hence available in many varieties. They can be fully customized, inlaid, carved, sculpted, colored and can be accented with gold or precious stones. The Abyss ring is one such customized ring.

Titanium has extremely high ductile strength. However, under extreme circumstances, titanium rings could bend out of round. If a high pressure is applied on a square wave ring, which could happen when being hit by a car door, the ring would bend when the force is strong enough. These are quite extreme and rare in nature, and any deformation can then be corrected at your local jeweler.

Titanium will not change color with normal wear. It is an inert metal. This means it will not change color when exposed to sunlight or submerged in salt water or swimming pool water. It is also fine to let titanium come in contact with cosmetics. This will not alter the metal. A jeweler can color the metal if desired, but it will not happen from normal wear.

Often people need to resize their rings. This is because our weight fluctuates throughout our lives, and so do our ring sizes. Titanium is more difficult than other metals to resize, but titanium rings can actually be sized up or down one size. This requires special equipment to compress or stretch the titanium. That way, men can wear the same wedding band from the day they are married for the rest of their lives.

Due to the raising popularity of titanium wedding rings, they are widely available at most jewelery stores. In addition to becoming more widespread, the raising demand has lowered costs for these rings. A cheap ring is therefore now a great choice to consider as an alternative to the traditional gold wedding band.

The area most needing improvement is the sale of online diamonds and engagement rings in Titanium mens ring
