What do you think of these wedding bands?

[vi edit]

I saw these on a never ending quest for our wedding bands. I'll probably get one, but the wifey will go with a platinum band that matches hers. The style is called Mokume. It's a technique that the Japanese used to use to make their swords.

Cool stuff.

Since I am on my third or forth wedding band after 12 years, I suggest getting the cheapest kind you can find for the guy.

Good friend of mine is on about the smae number as me, he wears a piece of crap he bought for $9.00.

Looks similar to damascus steel...

Yeh, I'm going to get a cheapie white gold or titanium ring that I can wear out and about. I'm looking at these as the "going out to fancy places" ring.

Look pretty good.

My girl is a silver color freak like I am. Wonder how platinum and silver look?

Ahh well... We're still a long way from that.

What do you mean she'll get a platinum band that matches hers? Her what? Shouldn't you two just get different versions *male/female* of the same ring?

I like this one and this one.

They look nice. Me and the wife have similar bands where as mine has 8 princess cut (square) that curve through the ring and hers is the same but in in the middle of the princess cuts( 4 on either side) she has a marque diamond.

rings are hard to find, there are so many. The wife drew up pictures of ours and then had the jewelest (ring dudes) make them from scratch.

Good luck, those do look real nice.

The wifey will get a platinum band, not of this style, that complements her engagement ring. We aren't too concerned on having "his and hers" wedding rings.

Dude buy what you like. Or better yet buy what she likes. I have a plain gold, 14K, size 12 wedding band. What it represents is the important thing, not what it looks like. JMO

This was my favorite

Well duh I posted to see if people had similar tastes as me. Oh and size 12? Egads! That's a big ring.

Sorry, I didn't mean for it to sound like a lecture. Personally I'd be afraid to wear something real fancy. My ring is pretty beaten up/scratched.

Same here. I'd recommend something thats more polishable where scratches aren't going to undermine a design or pattern.

Show me the gold!
