Why Choose Tungsten for Your Wedding Ring?

Tungsten carbide is rapidly becoming a favourite material for men's wedding rings, and for good reason. Here's why tungsten stands out:

  • Exceptional Durability: Tungsten is one of the hardest metals on Earth, ensuring your ring withstands daily wear.
  • Scratch-Resistant: Unlike softer metals, tungsten maintains its polished look for years.
  • Hypoallergenic: Ideal for men with sensitive skin or metal allergies.
  • Low Maintenance: Tungsten rings require minimal care to keep their lustrous appearance.
  • Affordable Luxury: Get a premium look and feel without breaking the bank.

The Anvil: A Symbol of Enduring Love

The Anvil - 6mm domed hammered tungsten gunmetal ring

The Anvil, our 6mm domed hammered tungsten gunmetal ring, pays homage to the rich history of weddings. In bygone days, couples would sneak away for an 'anvil wedding', where the priest would strike the anvil with a hammer, symbolising the joining of two lives. This ring embodies that tradition with its robust design and unique hammered texture.

"The Anvil isn't just a ring; it's a piece of history on your finger, reminding you of the strength of your bond every day."

The Fortress: Strong as Your Love

The Fortress - 8mm gunmetal brushed tungsten ring

Stand strong in your love with The Fortress, our 8mm gunmetal brushed tungsten ring. The dual-tone design and bevelled edge create a striking appearance that's as sturdy as it is stylish. This ring is perfect for the man who values both aesthetics and durability in his wedding band.

The Foundry: Where Love is Forged

The Foundry - 8mm tungsten with rose gold plated inner ring

Let the fire of love burn bright with The Foundry! This 8mm tungsten ring features a rose gold plated inner, adding a touch of warmth and luxury. The small glimpse of gold on the outside gives it an extra shine, making it perfect for those who want a subtle yet sophisticated look.

The Koa: Nature's Strength

The Koa - 8mm brushed Tungsten Koa wood ring

Our 8mm brushed Tungsten Koa wood ring is a perfect combination of strength and natural beauty. The Koa tree itself carries great symbolism, with two different kinds of leaves during its growth - much like two unique individuals coming together in marriage to form a solid foundation.

Care and Maintenance Tips

While tungsten rings are known for their durability, proper care will ensure they maintain their lustre for years to come. Here are some tips to keep your tungsten ring looking its best:

  1. Clean regularly with mild soap and warm water
  2. Dry thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots
  3. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish
  4. Remove your ring during heavy manual labour to prevent unnecessary wear
  5. Store separately to avoid scratching other jewellery

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:

Click to expand
  • 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.
