Mens Wedding Bands

The men's wedding bands came more into vogue during the second world war when it become the thing for soldier to wear it for remember their wives at home.

With the eradication of the idea of slavery and of owning wives  as also due to modern emancipated thinking, use of wedding rings by men has multiplied manifolds. Nowadays men's wedding bands are sported across the world to commemorate the love in one's life.

Like the majority of other items of jewelry, gold is the ubiquitous choice for creation of men's wedding bands too. Nonetheless, in more recent times other precious and non-precious metals like stainless steel, carbon fiber, tungsten, tungsten carbide, silver, titanium and platinum are also attaining acceptance to craft this emblem of togetherness.

Normally, these bands made by metals like tungsten, tungsten carbide and titanium are more suitable for daily wear as they have a good degree of hardness to brave the daily grind. These metals are also used in their pure form making them hypoallergenic meaning that they do not set off allergic reactions with the skin. But these metals are not as valuable & exclusive as gold and platinum.

Gold and platinum also have a good degree of hardness but are prone to getting scratched. Platinum has a higher degree of hardness than gold but is also more expensive.

Customarily, mens wedding bands have been plain ring type bands but they can also be adorned with diamonds or other gemstones of your choice.

The size of the Mens wedding bands ought to be matched properly with the measurement of the finger for a comfort fit.

The Egyptians and the Romans commonly believed that a vein from the fourth finger headed directly to the heart and made their women wear the wedding band on the 4th finger which came to be acknowledged as the ring finger.

Though the theory has since been proven to be incorrect, the band is still worn on the base of the left ring finger with the romantic notion of linking it directly to the heart
