Titanium Wedding Band

My fiance` says he doesn’t mind what it’s made out of and refuses to pick (typical!) He owns a restaurant and works with his hands A LOT. Which is the most stylish but would also be okay to get beat up everyday?
He doesn’t like gold :\

Here’s the thing, Titanium and Stainless Steel are not precious metals so they tend to not look too much like wedding band. I don’t know if that matters to you or not. And they will both scratch so it doesn’t sound like they would work well for his needs. Another thing to keep in mind is they cannot ever be resized.

My fiance doesn’t care much for gold either so we went with Palladium. He works with his hands too so we wanted something that would be really durable. Palladium is in the Platinum family, but is less expensive than Platinum. Price-wise its between the price of gold and platinum. Its actually stronger than Platinum, and whiter too! Due to the nature of the metal, there are tons of options for designs as it lends itself well to more complex designs. Gold is too soft for detailed designs but not Paladium! You should really check it out!

Best of luck and congrats!!

As time goes on and trends come and go, many ideas and products are discovered and are soon forgotten. The pet rock, beanie babies, and many other trends are no stranger to this idea that maybe life only gives us our fifteen minutes of fame. Much of this is decided amongst buyers and what the current celebrity is wearing or eating at that particular time. Once in a while though, we see trends that do stay with us and continue to evolve into products that will last a lifetime.

The jewelry world has seen its fair share of product lines over the past few decades with the traditional gold and silver markets staying strong. Platinum has arrived into the scene with all the biggest rap stars flaunting medallions and other outrageous pieces made of platinum and diamonds. Much like the Beanie Baby or Pet Rock, Platinum seems to be a metal that will be here for a while but will not last the test of time. A more up and coming metal is Titanium, the metal that lasts forever. Titanium is a hyper allergenic material that has some of the best qualities a metal could possibly have. Titanium is one of the hardest metals and lightest metals on the market. It brings a durable, lightweight and edgy look to anything that is created out of it. Titanium is one of the most unique metals the industry has seen and it will continue to grow.

Since the recent uprising of Titanium, it is a material that has found its way into many different uses and is hitting the wedding ring market. Titanium’s true qualities are what make the metal so special for those who chose it as a wedding band. Since it is nearly indestructible, Titanium will last a lifetime. It becomes a part of you and the metal will continue to hold up over time. It has been a unique choice for men who aren’t into the whole gold or platinum scene. Titanium is a much more affordable choice for many shoppers these days and can be combined with gold and platinum to still give a traditional and well rounded look. As Titanium continues to grow and be used in a wide variety of production you will not see the huge swings in price or the shortage of it when it counts the most. Lastly, Titanium is a metal that you will proud to wear and show off because it is just something different.

It is a material that is here to stay and will take its course amongst the greats but in the end will last forever.

Give Titanium a try. The qualities and elaborate designs offer something that is lightweight, rugged and in the end is much more affordable. Titanium wedding rings, bracelets and other designer trends can be found at www.titanium-buzz.com

Why are they so cheap? Are they like gold and platinum?

I was thinking of white gold and platinum bands. Is titanium better or just a cheaper rendition?

Titanium is a natural element, that is mined from the ground. It’s stronger than gold and platinum, and hypoallergenic. It usually has a very dull finish to it, and doesn’t shine as much as gold or platinum.

Titanium is cheaper than gold and platinum because it isn’t considered a precious metal, but it’s much more scratch resistant than gold and platinum. It’s also a naturally grey-ish colour that never fades. It’s also super light-weight. In fact, you’ll feel like you’re not really wearing anything when you’re wearing it, as compared to gold, platinum or silver rings.

Titanium is a good choice, but keep in mind that once you buy a titanium ring, it can never be sized further in the future. So, as time goes by and you and your significant other’s finger size changes, you’ll be stuck with a titanium ring that cannot be sized, and you’ll probably have to buy another ring to replace it.

I wear only titanium rings and use a little bit of toothpaste like plain, old fashioned Colgate on a soft bristled child’s toothbrush (it gets into all the nooks and crannies, especially if you have a stone you need to clean behind). Rinse in warm running water and polish with a soft cloth (like an old t-shirt). Works every time.
