Good question! Picking your ring metal is important, influencing looks, price, maintenance and care. Couples may choose to buy matching or contrasting rings.
Platinum: The rarest of all available precious metals but also the strongest, whitest, and most durable.
White Gold: An alloy of yellow gold, mixed with white metal to deliver a shine comparable to platinum.
Yellow Gold: The most traditional of all wedding band metals. A timeless metal owing to its precious nature and rarity.
Palladium: Extremely popular amongst budding grooms, a member of the platinum family but 1/3 of the price.
Rose Gold: One of the trendiest metals of modern days, formulated using gold mixed with copper alloys and silver to deliver that lovely pink-red hue.
Silver: The most common of all precious metals, easier to source and a lot cheaper to buy.
A trend amongst budding brides and grooms to be is the contrasting trend. This means that budding brides and grooms would partner an engagement band with a wedding ring of an oppositional ring metal or hue. It's not recommended to sit such metals as platinum and palladium against an oppositional metal as they will scratch and damage other materials due to their stern nature.
As a result, it is most commonly different types of gold that people partner together. Our two toned wedding rings showcase our 18-carat white and yellow gold's without the means of partnering with existing engagement rings, which is perfect for grooms who prefer not to wear jewellery or do not want to wear an engagement band.
We also offer a variety of profiles and styles, so you can be reassured that you have the style of two-tone ring that will suit you. Many find that these rings also make ideal matching pairs, as the contrast of the colour is seen as representative of unity and harmony between two differential tones, much like the process of a wedding ceremony.
