Simple - tungsten carbide is one of the world's hardest and most scratch resistant substances. Compared to other jewelry materials, its scratch resistance and general resilience is extreme. For example, it's 2x harder than steel, 4x harder than titanium, and a whopping 10x harder than gold. Keep in mind that hardness is a measure of scratch resistance.

This means Tungsten Carbide rings keep their amazing finishes for far, far longer. Often times it's hard to tell a tungsten ring that has been worn for 10 years from a new tungsten ring once you give it a good clean with a cloth! It's that long lasting.

The human body can be allergic to almost anything, so it's impossible for anyone to claim anything won't give you an allergic reaction. However, we are confident in saying that our rings are very hypoallergenic - the reason is that we use a cobalt binder in our rings, rather than cobalt.

Tungsten carbide in its naturally occurring form is a silvery white substance. A lot of people, however, want the combination of the natural strength and power of tungsten carbide in a black ring instead. 

For those customers, we employ a technique called (physical) Vapor Deposition. This is a very high technology process in which a material is deposited on the surface of another material almost atom by atom, creating a very, very strong bond. In our case, we deposit black titanium zirconium on the surface of the white tungsten.

This is a very strong process, this plating is way stronger than any other type of plating, however, it can still wear off over time, and it's not as scratch resistant as tungsten carbide.

If you have an active lifestyle and want a non-silver (black, pearl white, pink, etc.) band, we recommend you go with a ceramic band instead. 

Our gorgeous Ceramic rings are a favorite among people who want a black (or pink) ring. Black ceramic, or pink ceramic, is the same color throughout, so you don't have to worry about it scratching it all that much - it won't show as easily, since it's the same color inside. If you have an active lifestyle, want a black ring, and want to keep the ring looking like the day you bought it for a long time - ceramic is the way to go.

Apart from that - our ceramic rings are also extremely resilient and scratch resistant, and truly gorgeous. 

A lot of our inlay rings are black ceramic. The resins we use to bind the inlays in place are not as scratch resistant as the ceramic or the tungsten carbide, so if you have an active lifestyle and it's important to you to keep the ring scratch free, you might want to skip the inlay.

These two get confused all the time! Ring size is the diameter of the ring, and is dependent on your finger size. If you choose a ring size that's too big the ring might fall off your finger, and if it's too small it might be too tight.

Ring width however, is merely a cosmetic issue. It's how 'thick' the ring appears on your finger - it's basically how far it runs along your finger.
