*This ring cannot be resized

Product Overview
A warm gold-tone IP plating meets a brushed stainless steel surface in a wedding band built to wear as well as it looks. The grooved centre detail draws a clean line across the width of the band, giving the design a quiet structure that reads as intentional without being ornate.
Stainless steel sits beneath the plating, resisting tarnish, rust, and the daily contact that wears softer metals down. The brushed finish keeps the light soft and directional, so the band reads refined in any setting. An engravable surface means the ring can carry something personal, a date, a name, a word that matters.

Perfect For
A thoughtful choice for weddings, anniversaries, or any moment that calls for a ring that lasts. It suits partners who want coordinating bands as much as those who prefer to wear one well-chosen piece. Makes a meaningful gift for someone who values durability and quiet elegance in equal measure.
Precious Metals
14k Gold (Most Popular) — 58.3% pure gold. The ideal balance of durability and color richness. Available in yellow, white, and rose gold. The standard choice for fine jewelry and everyday wear.
18k Gold (Premium) — 75% pure gold. Richer color, preferred for heirloom and engagement pieces where purity and depth of tone matter most.
10k Gold (Everyday Value) — 41.7% pure gold. The most durable gold alloy. Ideal for active wearers. Stamped 417 inside the band.
Sterling Silver (925) — 92.5% pure silver. Cool-toned and elegant. Best for occasional wear; develops a warm natural patina over time.
Platinum — Naturally white, hypoallergenic, and exceptionally durable. The premium choice for those with nickel sensitivities or who want a ring built to last generations.
Alternative Metals
Stainless Steel — Extremely durable, scratch-resistant, and hypoallergenic. Maintains its polish with minimal maintenance. A popular choice for mens wedding bands and everyday rings. Does not tarnish or corrode.
Cobalt Chrome — Four times harder than platinum and naturally white. Cobalt chrome rings are virtually scratch-proof, lightweight, and permanently polished. An excellent alternative to white gold for those who want lasting brilliance without rhodium replating.
Titanium — Exceptionally lightweight and incredibly strong. About 45% lighter than steel, titanium is hypoallergenic and corrosion-resistant. A practical choice for active wearers who prefer a lighter ring without sacrificing durability.
Tungsten Carbide — One of the hardest materials used in jewelry. Tungsten rings are highly scratch-resistant and hold their polish indefinitely. Heavier than gold or titanium, which many wearers prefer for the substantial feel. Cannot be resized.
