One of the biggest risks of wearing a tungsten steel ring is also the reason so many people purchase one in the first place. Tungsten steel rings are extremely strong, and more durable even than titanium rings (which are similar in strength to tungsten steel, but titanium is more brittle). People's fingers change size due to both the time of day and the temperature, and these rings won't stretch. Additionally these rings are difficult, if not impossible to resize once they've been purchased due to their strength and durability as a metal.

Tungsten steel rings are commonly referred to as tungsten carbide. According to buyt ungsten carbide.com, when tungsten is mixed with a carbon alloy such as high carbon steel and then put under pressure it becomes tungsten carbide. This metal is popular for men's accessories such as rings and bracelets, but the buyer should be very careful before purchasing these accessories because there may be some side effects.

Most tungsten steel rings are hypoallergenic, which means that there will be no health side effects from wearing the ring. However if there is another metal in the alloy of the ring, such as cobalt, there could be an allergic reaction. The skin will typically turn a greenish color, and the ring will begin to show signs of chemical change. This could also be dangerous because the finger could swell up inside the ring, making it necessary to cut it off. This is difficult to do with a tungsten steel ring. When purchasing one of these rings it's best to make sure that it's as pure as possible to avoid these side effects.

The intention of an engagement ring is clear: the wearer has said yes to a proposal of marriage and a wedding date will be set. However, the meaning behind a promise ring depends on the couple involved.

Faithfulness
A promise ring may signify a couple's commitment to stop seeing other people or to remain monogamous.

Purity
For younger couples or those with religious beliefs that people should not have sex before marriage, a promise ring may signify their commitment to abstaining from sex.

Lifelong Commitment
For couples who don't believe in marriage, or those who simply aren't sure if and when they want to get married, a promise ring can declare their lifelong commitment to each other in lieu of an engagement.

Pre-engagement
Especially for younger couples, the promise ring may signify the intention to become formally engaged when they are older. It may be seen as a temporary symbol until the couple is financially able to afford an engagement ring and plan a wedding.

A promise ring is given from one partner to another. It signifies a promise between the two partners that has to do with their relationship. When deciding on the type of promise ring to give to your partner, there are many different types to choose from no matter what your relationship status is.

Commitment Rings
Commitment promise rings specify a commitment between the two individuals that they won't date anyone else. This commitment can be for a specified period of time or throughout the life of the relationship. These type of rings are generally plain in appearance.

Purity Rings
Purity promise rings signify the partners not having sexual intercourse before marriage. They are often given after the individuals have been in the relationship for at least two or three months. Purity rings generally have religious symbols such as crosses on them.

Future Marriage Rings
Future marriage rings specify a promise between the individuals that they will marry each other some day. They differ from engagement rings in the fact that it is just a promise and not an engagement with a date set or wedding plans. Future marriage rings do not consist of any design in particular, but can have designs such as hearts on them.

Upgrade Rings
Ring upgrade promise rings are generally given to a partner as a cheaper alternative to a wedding or engagement ring. With this type of ring it is promised that a proper engagement or wedding ring will be given when money or other resources allow. Promise rings that offer a ring upgrade often times have stones in them that are made of cubic zirconium or gems.

Forever Rings
Forever rings are given to a partner as a promise that they will be together forever without getting married. Forever rings often look like wedding bands.

Promise rings signify many different things. One common reason for giving a woman a promise ring is to tell her that although it is not yet the right time for an engagement, you will remain faithful to her until that time comes. Other rings signify platonic friendship or a commitment to purity. The latter are often called purity rings and are usually given to a daughter. Many ring styles are available, but with a little research and close observation, you can select a ring that is appropriate for your special woman.

1.Determine what the promise ring signifies. This makes a difference in the finger the recipient will wear the ring on and the style of the ring.

2.Notice what kind of jewelry she wears, especially rings. If she wears jewelry that is mostly small and dainty, she probably will not enjoy a large, chunky ring. If she wears mostly gold, she may prefer that metal over silver. Get to know her preferences through many weeks of careful observation.

3.Observe her hand size and finger length when considering what kind of ring will flatter her hand. For example, if she has very large hands, a tiny stone on a thin band will look lost. Wider bands and longer stones are often flattering for long fingers, while thin bands and symmetrical stones lengthen short fingers.

4.Research her birthstone or observe what colors she often wears if you are considering a colored stone.

5.Look for a ring that best symbolizes the purpose for which you are giving it. For example, if it is a pre-engagement ring, you may want a diamond. If it is a friendship ring, it is usually best to avoid diamonds and anything else that may lead a woman to believe that it is a symbol of romantic love.

6.Find out her ring size. It is usually acceptable to ask a close friend or parent for help on this. If you have any doubts, purchase a standard size ring and keep the receipt so she can get it fitted later.

Wearing a promise ring usually represents a commitment to another individual as part of a monogamous relationship. In some cases, a promise ring can symbolize a vow to abstain from sex until marriage or to avoid using drugs or other illicit substances. Promise rings can be ornate or plain, depending on the preferences of the person giving and wearing the ring. The correct way to wear a promise ring depends on the nature of the promise.

1.Wear a promise ring on the third finger of the left hand (the "ring finger" next to the pinky) if the ring symbolizes a promise of marriage before a formal engagement.

2.Switch the promise ring to the ring finger on the right hand when an engagement ring is presented.

3.Wear a promise ring on the right-hand ring finger with the heart facing outward, on top of the hand, if the wearer's heart is free and the ring symbolizes friendship.

4.Place the promise ring on any finger except the ring finger of the left hand if the band symbolizes a vow of sobriety or a promise to avoid addictive behaviors.

You've found that special someone. She is everything you've been looking for. Kind and loving, she puts butterflies in your stomach. You want to take that next step, moving on to the next level--but not "that" next step and not "that" next level. Presenting a promise ring can be a tricky situation if not handled correctly. Easily misinterpreted, the act of presenting a promise ring can be a fine line between looking like a cheesy declaration of love and walking down the aisle.

1.Get the ring. A promise ring could be any type of ring, so that leaves room for interpretation. Typically it does have some type of stone in it, but is generally low in cost. Seek a department store for purchase rather than an expensive jeweler.

2.Pick the right time and place. Having this type of conversation requires a place for good listening and privacy. Presenting the promise ring in a public place could alter the message being conveyed. People seeing a ring may start clapping about marriage and put you in a bad situation. Take a walk and be alone when the talking starts.

3.Have a brief conversation before presenting. A short talk about your feelings and the relationship can ease into presenting the ring. However, don't go too long. Nerves may take over and silence you or your presentee may be expecting a diamond ring. Keep it short and relax, remembering that this is a good thing, not the "big" step.

4.Hold the promise ring out with verbal declaration. State that it is a promise ring so that the ring is not mistaken for an engagement ring. Talk about what you want in the relationship (monogamy, a path to engagement, strong communication) as well as your feelings (love and commitment) while presenting.

5.Establish the relationship. After presenting the ring, discuss what it means and how it will affect your relationship. Talk about terms of seriousness (this is a relationship, not just dating or hanging out), monogamy (exclusivity in the relationship, especially intimacy) and communication (taking more time to talk and learn about one another).

What would life be without friends? They are a major support system, and in many cases they're often just like family. Sometimes lavish gifts simply cannot adequately convey our gratitude for everything that our friends do for us. If you are looking for a special way to show your friends how much you appreciate being part of their life, consider the gift of a friendship ring.

History
The first ring in history with symbolism can be linked to a friendship that originated in 17th century Ireland during the reign of Mary II. Called the Claddagh ring, it features two hands holding a heart that is topped by a small crown. The two hands represent friendship,while the heart and crown stood for love and loyalty, respectively. According to historical narratives, an Irishman named Richard Joyce crafted the first Claddagh ring while in exile and gave it to his lady upon returning to Ireland.

Identification
Modern friendship rings often resemble wedding bands, sometimes featuring engraved text such as "Best Friends" or "Friends Forever". Other friendship rings are shaped like two interlocking hands, hearts or the Irish Claddagh symbol. Friendship rings are often sold in pairs, allowing both the recipient and the giver to have identical rings that fit together, like puzzle pieces, with the help of indentations and grooves. Some people choose to make their own friendship rings of materials such as beads.

Vendors
Friendship rings can be obtained from a wide variety of retailers. There are a number of online vendors that specialize in personalized friendship rings, providing bulk discounts that make this option ideal for customers who want to give rings to more than one friend. Other examples include specialized jewelry stores, which tend to carry a large selection of friendship bands and often offer engraving services at the same location.

Significance
Friendship rings symbolize the bond between two people who are neither related to each other not are involved in a romantic relationship. Some people interpret friendship rings as meaning that two people are 'non-blood siblings'. Friends wear these rings to show their support, appreciation and commitment to each other. Celebration of International Friendship Day, which takes place year on the first Sunday of August, often involves the exchange of friendship bands.

Considerations
Friendship rings can serve other purposes in addition to symbolizing a bond between friends. These rings are sometimes thought to be engagement rings or wedding bands,particularly when worn by a male and female duo. As a result, the woman's friendship ring may serve as a sign that men should not pursue her. In other cases, a friendship ring isgiven to the recipient as an important reminder, for example to abstain from self-harm.

The Claddagh ring, originally a symbol of the town of Claddagh, Galway, Ireland, has been a traditional Irish love token since the 17th Century. It remains popular as a ring exchanged between couples (as an engagement or wedding ring) or between close family members (heirlooms passed from mother to daughter, for example).

Features
A typical Claddagh consists of two hands clasping a crowned heart. Most interpret the hands to signify friendship, the heart to signify love, and the crown as fidelity or loyalty.

History
The history of the Claddagh ring is cloaked in legend. The most popular tells of Richard Joyce, who, in the 17th Century, was kidnapped by pirates. Upon his return home, he presented his still-faithful fiancée a gold Claddagh ring.

Significance
There is a ritual to the wearing of a Claddagh ring---the hand on which it is worn and the position it is oriented signifies a person's romantic state of affairs.

Wearing on the Right Hand
According to most sources, if the ring is worn on the right hand with the crown facing outward, it means that the wearer is seeking true love. When worn on the right hand, with the crown facing the hand, it means the wearer has promised her heart to another.

Wearing on the Left Hand
Worn on the left hand, with the crown facing inward, it means the wearer is engaged or seriously attached. On the left hand with the crown posed outward, it signifies that the wearer is married, or has true love.

Alternative Christian Meanings
There are numerous other legends behind the origin of the Claddagh ring and its meaning. Some attribute the crown to signify the glory of Jesus Christ, crowning love (the heart) and faith (the clasping hands).

Alternative Celtic Meanings
Other symbolism points to ancient Gaelic mythology in which the crown signifies Beathauile (from the Gaelic word beatha, meaning life), the left hand denotes Anu (a Celtic goddess),the right hand represents Dagda (a Celtic god) and the heart represents the hearts of all mankind.

An Irish wedding ring is called a claddagh ring. It has a rich history steeped in legend,but the tradition goes that it was first made by a man from Galway who gave it to his bride after she had loyally waited for his return from sea. The ring is made of a two handsholding a heart with a crown. Together they symbolize the saying "love, loyalty,friendship." The hands portray trust and faith, the heart love, the crown loyalty and the hope of future glory. Still a meaningful symbol today, the way you wear it shows your relationship status.

1.Place the claddagh ring on the fourth finger of your right hand with the heart pointing outwards from the body to signify that you are single, or as the Irish say "your heart is open to love."

2.Turn the claddagh ring around on the fourth finger of your right hand so that the heart points in towards the wrist to show that you are in a relationship and your heart is taken.

3.Position the claddagh ring on the fourth finger of your left hand with the heart pointing toward your wrist as a sign that you are now married.
