The Best Wedding Ring Information Ever on Why Titanium is better than Gold
Buying UK made Wedding Rings? We have the best information ever on why UK made wedding rings made from titanium are better than gold and why you should consider buying titanium jewellery rather than other precious metals.
The advantages of owning a titanium wedding ring
Consider first the benefits of owning a titanium ring. When purchasing a ring of marriage, gold is everyone's first choice and buying a titanium wedding ring sounds like a weird idea until, of course, you consider the advantages. You shouldn't have to buy the first cheap wedding ring you come across, and below are half a dozen facts we have collated to help you make that all-important decision.
Fact 1: Skin reactions to jewellery are quite a common issue for many people. Silver is usually the worst offender; skin can flare up and turn black on some skin types. We have more details about this on our page about silver jewellery. Titanium on the other hand (lousy joke hmm!) is hypoallergenic, meaning it shouldn't react with anyone's skin, so therefore no more blackened fingers. Many people don't realise how similar silver looks to titanium, but more importantly, titanium will last, as silver is a soft metal and degrades quickly.
Fact 2: Again, going back to silver, we all know that silver does tarnish. Titanium has anti-corrosive properties in its chemical makeup, so when it is scratched, it won't lose its colour. In fact, it works like magic by forming an oxidised surface.
Fact 3: Weight! Titanium is light, very light! In fact, it is so lightweight you may forget you are wearing a ring at all. Titanium is also unyielding and is comparable to steel in this respect.
Fact 4: One of the most important factors to consider when buying a ring is that of comfort on the finger. If you plan to wear a ring like a wedding ring, the titanium rings on our website have a court-shaped profile. The inner face has a slight curve to it, and the inside edge comes polished to a beautiful finish, so the ring smoothly glides onto your wedding ring finger.
Fact 5: Titanium rings are designed to last you a lifetime. You would need to apply severe abuse using specialist machinery to destroy a titanium ring. However, destroying a ring is not similar to everyday wear and tear, and heavy scratching might mark the outer surface. More interestingly is the finishes on the ring - while a polished surface may turn matte over time a matte surface will, in fact, shine up. You can, of course, have the ring refinished at any time should you require this service for a small fee. After-sales services are one reason we suggest you purchase your titanium rings from Love2Have, as high street stockists can't assist with refinishing because the rings are imported and made abroad. Be very careful if you decide to buy from the high street. We'd love to name names, but we can't afford the legal fees. We also know that some so-called gold-inlaid rings on the high street are just thin sections of gold plating that eventually wear away.
Fact 6: Finally, why not try something different with a Love2Have branded titanium ring. We sell the real deal: high-quality titanium rings made here in the UK, with beautiful quality and eye-catching contemporary designs for both men and women. Titanium is also still looked upon as quite a new fashion, and it is never too late to make a fashion statement at your wedding reception. You can opt for a plain band, and we don't mean flat and boring. Twin-finish or two-tone ranges turn a plain ring into something special. By adding two different finishes to the same band, it can make the ring look far more expensive than it is by creating the illusion of an inlay. In fact, it is just a polished ridge on a satin-finish ring. On top of that, how about an outer engraving personalised to your choice and hey presto! A unique ring, for a very particular day, at an exceptional price!
