If you are getting married soon and want to buy a wedding ring that is as elegant as gold and platinum, but do not have the budget for expensive rings; what is your alternative to expensive wedding rings without sacrificing quality? The answer is tungsten wedding bands, which are wedding rings made from the most durable metal used in the jewelry industry today, tungsten carbide.

Tungsten carbide wedding bands have a slightly grayish metallic hue that men love. Its polish stays flawless for years and years, unlike gold, platinum or even titanium. How can a metal that with so many advantages cost so much less? This is because the raw materials used to make tungsten wedding bands are not at all time high prices, like gold is, for example. The value of jewelry is based on the cost of the metal used to make the ring and the cost of labor that is required to make the ring. In the case of tungsten rings, the cost is mainly the cost of craftsmanship. Be careful not to purchase tungsten rings that are priced too cheaply (usually less than $100.00) because this is usually an indication of low quality.

Tungsten carbide wedding bands have the same or even superior features of traditional metals used for wedding rings. As stated earlier, they possess the qualities of being very hard, durable and resistant to dents and scratches. You do not have to worry about allergic reactions if you have sensitive skin because tungsten carbide is hypoallergenic, just like platinum. White Gold on the other hand, is not hypoallergenic because it contains a high amount of nickel. Also, tungsten also does not lose its color like white gold does after a short time of wear.

Tungsten Wedding Bands: Important Features

The most important feature of tungsten carbide wedding bands is the permanent polished look of the rings. A tungsten carbide ring never needs to be re-polished, even years or decades after you own it, which means you never have to spend any money on re-polishing of your ring, as is the case with precious metal rings. To provide additional peace of mind and value to our customers, Larson Jewelers offers a lifetime guarantee on all tungsten rings we carry. This means if anything should happen to the ring, whether it is your fault or not, we will replace it free of charge. Even if your finger size changes during the course of your lifetime, we will replace your ring with a new size. While some other retailers do provide a lifetime warranty, they do not provide a free lifetime warranty. This shows a lack of confidence in the rings that they carry.

The superior features of the tungsten carbide wedding bands mean that you do not have to take them off if you engage in sports, manual labor, or other activities that could damage rings made of traditional metals, which you have to take off to prevent any damage. Rest assured you can enjoy your favorite physical activities and wear it to work without worrying about any noticeable damage to your carbide wedding ring.

These days, people are looking for elegance, affordability and durability when shopping for a wedding band. In other words, value is what people are looking for in a wedding band. Tungsten wedding bands offer exactly that. This is why in only a few short years, tungsten wedding rings have become one of the most popular types of wedding rings on the market today.

If you're like most guys, the idea of shopping for tungsten jewelry isn't one that gets you terribly excited, even if that jewelry is tungsten rings for men. Most guys are perfectly content with letting their fiancé or girlfriend choose a tungsten ring for them. If this describes your situation, here is some advice – don't let her!

Think about it; taking the time to look at rings for men might actually be fun, and you should have at least some input in choosing a ring that you'll be wearing every day. If you let your fiancé choose a wedding ring for you, you may end up with something completely different from what you had envisioned.

Of course, this doesn't mean that you should just go shopping for a tungsten wedding ring on your own. There is definitely something to be said for getting a woman's point of view on rings for men.

Even those who set out to buy gold often choose two tone black titanium rings, tungsten rings with carbon fiber insets, and other industrial metals like cobalt and stainless steel. Even sterling silver is becoming a popular choice in tungsten wedding rings for men.

If your style is clean, elegant and sophisticated, you may want a ring that looks great yet doesn't "jump out at you".

In one of my recent articles, Tungsten rings are fast becoming a fashion trend in recent times. Whether the rings are worn for fashion, wedding symbols or as engagement rings, these fabulous rings are sure to capture a lot of attention of those who ever laid eyes on them.

Tungsten inlay wedding bands or rings are made available in classic simple styles when they first emerged in the jewelry industry. A few years ago, the process of creating tungsten carbide rings requires some extensive technology due to the complex characteristics of the tungsten metal. Hence, fast forward a few years later, the technology has advanced significantly and has since allowed many possibilities of creating more complex tungsten ring designs. Tungsten carbide rings can now be made in simple and classic dome design to a more unique flat surface design with beveled edges. The creation of the tungsten jewelry can even be elevated to a new level of carved designs, colored rings and exquisite inlays.

Tungsten inlay rings can be as simple as utilizing metals such as silver, platinum, gold and titanium or more unique materials such as carbon fiber, resin and ceramic. It is very common to use gold and carbon fiber as inlay with these tungsten rings. These inlaid rings with precious metals or carbon fiber are both modern and chic. Yet, the precious metals show a small contrast from the tungsten metal and thus bringing out a unique blend of color.

These tungsten carbide rings inlaid with gold, carbon fiber and resin offer an exquisite yet toughness character to your ring. Carbon fiber and resin inlays are fashionable and can be made in different colors that would suit many individual tastes and characteristics. On the other hand, there are also sandblast effects that are made as an alternative to inlays. Regardless, whichever inlaid rings design is selected, they are perfect from an economical standpoint that is both durable and beautiful.

Lastly, make sure you buy the tungsten rings without cobalt as to prevent any unsightly skin reactions. Check with the seller or read their tungsten rings FAQ before making any decision.

Tungsten carbide rings have become a much more popular option in years of late, some as fashion and some out of economic preference. One can usually find these rings at prices under a hundred dollars, in almost every type, while as the comparably-sized gold or silver rings would come in starting at a hundred to two hundred dollars and going up sharply from there.

There are different combinations of these tungsten carbide rings, which may include those with gold overlay. However, where the majority of the weight of the ring comes from the tungsten on the inside under the gold shell, those that have elaborate designs on the outer surface, and those that come with a variety of edge-patterns to them (flat exterior edges, for example). One of the most popular options with these rings is to have them finished in a comfort-fit inner surface where the inside edges are rounded slightly for more comfort over longer periods of time. Once you have experienced a comfort fit ring, it can be very difficult to return to the more traditional fit.

As with all rings, make sure that you know what your ring size is before ordering anything. If you are ordering online, make sure that the company you are ordering from has a well-established and generous return policy in case the ring you receive does not fit as well as you thought it might. A tungsten ring will fit in the same manner and according to the same sizes as other more traditional rings.

Once you have determined your ideal ring, research it a little further to make sure it is the right one for you. It might be useful to save some of the ring options and email them to yourself to look at the next day so that you can more-objectively look at them and make sure that it has the same appeal to you the next day. This can help you from making mistakes and ordering something on impulse that you may later regret and want to return. It is good to consider tungsten rings as a pleasing alternative to spending four to five times as much on the gold or silver-based equivalents.
