What Material Is Your Ring Made Of? 💍

I'm in a mood to talk about rings today, so I figured I'd start this thread! Everyone's rings seem to be so unique, and I'd love to hear about the details. What material (gold, platinum, wood, etc) is your ring made of? What type of gems (diamonds, sapphires, etc) do you have? Was it a custom...
I'm in a mood to talk about rings today, so I figured I'd start this thread! Everyone's rings seem to be so unique, and I'd love to hear about the details. What material (gold, platinum, wood, etc) is your ring made of? What type of gems (diamonds, sapphires, etc) do you have? Was it a custom design, or was it selected as-is from a jeweler? Does your wedding band match the design of your engagement ring? Any fun stories behind your ring?

Let's hear the details on your engagement rings and wedding bands, and share a photo or two!

    We custom designed my ring. I knew I wanted a kite salt and pepper diamond and that I wanted it to be super unique. We got our inspiration from the Art Deco era and had a local jeweler make it. The metal is white gold. The first diamond we got had a chip in it so they replaced it and I just got it back!

    My ring is from yellow gold with a round diamond.

    Awesome that you both picked out your ring together! It looks beautiful! Did you always have your heart set on white gold? Or did you look at other metals too? My ring is also white gold - I knew I didn't want yellow gold or rose gold, and didn't know too much about other metals for rings, so white gold made the most sense for me.

    Those rings pair together so perfectly! Is that the intended matching band for your engagement ring? Or did you just happen to find a band that was a close match? Either way, beautiful choice! Congratulations on your recent wedding!

    This is probably the most unique ring I've seen! I love the inspiration that you had for it, and I think the design very much so matches your inspiration. How special too that you had a local jeweler make your design come to life! Are you going to pair a wedding band with it? If so, are you going to design the band as well?

    I feel like I don't get to see many yellow gold rings lately, how fun! Do you have a photo of your ring? I'd love to see it!

    Nope the band isn’t the matching one from the set but we did try and find something similar! Although the diamonds on the band are a little smaller then the diamonds on the sides of my ring but I still think it’s perfect !

    Thanks. Honestly I wasn’t set on material of my ring. It so happened that my ring was white gold. Actually all the rings that we looked at was white gold.

    Thank you so much! For now I won’t be getting a wedding band because there are already 2 bands in the rings design. Maybe in the future we will get an anniversary band that’s just set diamonds that would go on the bottom on the ring? We will see haha

    What a unique and beautiful ring!! I looked into the salt and pepper diamond because they look like my fiance and I but, he had a diamond that was his grandmother's set for me. The setting was detective so I am waiting for the new one to arrive to then have the stone set again. It's made if 14k white gold, has pave diamond shoulders and will eventually hold the 2 carat round diamond. Congratulations!

    Such a stunning ring! Congratulations!!! I love that you'll be wearing a family heirloom. The diamond in my engagement ring belonged to my fiance's grandmother. We're waiting on a new setting to come in so that it can be reset. There are pave shoulders like yours but not a cathedral setting.

    I honestly didn't notice that the diamonds on the band were smaller than the ones on your engagement ring, but either way, I agree with you - I think the two rings pair together perfectly!

    Very cool! I think white gold is elegant for most pieces of jewelry.

    That makes sense! Plus, saves on costs for now by skipping the extra ring.
