What is Damascus Steel?

Damascus steel is a remarkable material with a rich history dating back centuries. Known for its distinctive wavy patterns and exceptional strength, Damascus steel is created by folding and forge-welding multiple types of steel together. The result is a unique, swirling pattern that's as individual as your love story.

Did you know? The name "Damascus" is believed to come from the Syrian city famous for its swords and metalwork.

At Forge & Lumber, we've harnessed the beauty and durability of Damascus steel to create a range of wedding bands that are truly one-of-a-kind.

Find Your Ring Size

How It Works:

Click to expand

  1. Measure Your Finger or an Existing Ring:

    • Finger Circumference: Use a strip of paper or a piece of string and wrap it around the base of your finger. Mark where the ends meet and measure the length against a ruler. Input this measurement into our tool.
    • Inner Diameter of an Existing Ring: If you have a ring that fits perfectly, simply measure its inner diameter (from edge to edge of the ring's inside circle). Enter this measurement for an accurate size conversion.

  2. Get Your Global Size: Our application instantly converts your measurement into the most commonly used international ring sizing standards - US, UK, French, German, Japanese, and Swiss. This feature makes our tool perfect for both local and international shoppers.

  3. Shop with Confidence: Once you have your ring size, explore our exquisite collection with the assurance that your chosen piece will fit as if it were made just for you.

Tips for Accurate Measurement:

  • Measure your finger at the end of the day when it is likely to be at its largest size.
  • Avoid measuring when you're cold, as fingers can be smaller.
  • If your knuckle is significantly larger than the base of your finger, measure both and select a size in between to ensure the ring will fit.
