Mens Wedding Rings Don’t Have To Be Basic And Unexciting

The use of a mens wedding rings and bands by a man signifies his commitment to his bride. It is symbolic of an eternal relationship between two kindred souls. Variety adds spice to life, and this principle applies to wedding bands too. Not being satisfied by standard plain bands men have turned their attention to sourcing unique wedding bands that will give them a distinct band that is a statement of style. A wedding band is often the only piece of jewelry that most men wear. So its looks really merit a lot of attention. While gold, silver and diamond are common wedding band materials, but for a person who wants a unique wedding band there are more choices available.

The Warrior mens wedding rings: These are very attractive male wedding rings, the design is from the Ardagh chalice. The Ardagh chalice is believed to be one of the earliest example of this type of craftsmanship. Although there is no defined meaning attached to the designs on the chalice, the warrior ring has found its own associations. The warrior ring has become associated with loyalty and strength; so a great choice for any groom.

The Claddagh Men's mens wedding bands: The Claddagh ring was originally given by a man to a woman, however over the years it has become more unisex. The Claddagh contains the hands of friendship, the heart of true love and the crown of loyalty; hence wonderfully suitable for either a man or a woman. Most grooms are choosing to have the Claddagh design engraved into a gold band, rather than the band formed into the symbols of the Claddagh.

The Knots And Twists Men's Wedding Bands: These designs have a simpler meaning than the other two designs; the entwining of two people. The designs for the knots and twists vary hugely and can be as intricate or simple as you wish. Many Celitc jewellers will have their own personalised twist and knot designs.

At their core, men's wedding bands are all about simplicity. While a women's wedding ring is there to show off, a men's band is there to simply state: I'm married, hands off. Because of this, men traditionally don't go for anything like fancy diamonds or other "bling", they simply stick with a precious metal. While gold and silver are still beloved choices, many men have started to flock towards other metals such as titanium and tungsten. These metals still give off beauty and sophistication, but they also give off something else, something that makes them perfect for men. I don't want to use the word "macho" because that makes it sound shallow, no, these metals startle the line between endearingly industrial and sophisticated much like a beautifully designed high rise which melds both steel and glass.

The nice thing about metals such as titanium and tungsten is that they are versatile enough to add other precious jewels or metals to the rings. Some sellers add sterling silver rope bands to their rings or engraved art carved faces. One of the most popular materials to add to these "metallic" rings is diamonds. Adding a bit of class to the rings, both white and black diamond's can be utilized as they go perfectly with titanium and tungsten rings. To give them a subtle sophistication, these diamonds are usually set into the band and not inserted on top of them.
