There are many reasons why titanium and tungsten rings have become so popular in recent years. Although silver, gold and platinum have been the standard metals of choice, titanium rings have crept into the men?s wedding jewelry market, and now both men and women are buying wedding bands and other jewelry that is made from this unique heavy metal. Tungsten and titanium bracelets, necklaces and other accessories are also gaining popularity. These metals are not only a more affordable choice, but they also have some unique characteristics that make them perfect for all sorts of jewelry: beautiful color, luster, heft and durability.
There is a unique allure to titanium and tungsten rings that comes from the combination of color, heft and luster which makes them psychologically appealing to many people. The natural bold silvery color of tungsten rings inspires associations with energy and health, and there are even more options for color. Tungsten’s bright silver can be modified by mixing it with other metals to create new materials such as black tungsten. Whatever shade they are, tungsten and titanium rings always have a unique luster that is all their own. These metals reflect light like no others; in fact, when they are polished they reflect more than 65 percent of visible light back to the eye of the beholder. This is very complimentary to the wearer.
The durability of titanium and tungsten is also unmatched. Whether it’s a titanium bracelet or a tungsten pendant, these metals will stand the test of time and always look beautiful, as long as they?re cleaned and polished occasionally. The heft of these heavy metals is part of the reason why they are so durable. Even a small ring can have a good weight, which gives this jewelry a good stable and sturdy feeling. All this adds up to a piece of jewelry that is luxurious and unique without being the cost of precious metals like platinum or white gold.
