A Showcase of the

Diverse Choices in

Men’s Rings

While men’s choices have traditionally

been limited to wedding bands and class

rings, men today have significantly more

options when it comes to wearing rings as

a matter of style.

From durable and rugged to

sophisticated and refined, there’s

something to suit every man’s tastes and

budget.

We’ll take a look at the different

materials and styles available today.

Titanium is extremely strong and durable, yet lightweight. It has a

lustrous silver color and is corrosion-

resistant, making it an excellent

choice for jewelry intended to be

passed down through the generations.

From patterns that mimic tire tread

to camouflage patterned inlays,

there are dozens of titanium ring

styles to choose from.

Highly durable and scratch-resistant, tungsten has a masculine, understated

quality that has become very popular in

recent years.

Tungsten is versatile and can be dressed

up or down. Wear it while casting a fishing

line on your getaway vacation, pair it with

jeans and a t-shirt, or sport it with a tux at

your company’s annual gala.

Beautifully detailed inlays make each of these affordable wooden

rings unique.

Alaska Jewelry has solved the

problem of warping and wearing with a special process that involves

infusing hardwood rings with resin

that penetrates the entire depth of

the ring.

The infused wooden rings will never

chip, fade, or wear.

A natural mineral harvested between 1906 and 1938 at the Kennecott Mine, Star of

Alaska gets its name from its resemblance

to brilliant silver stars against a cobalt-blue

Alaskan sky.

Colorful and distinctive, Star of Alaska

rings imbue a one-of-a-kind quality.

Star of Alaska rings are in very short supply, and each piece is unique.

Durable and affordable, black

ceramic carbide is ideal for men who

prefer understated sophistication.

Scratch resistant like tungsten, yet

lightweight like titanium, ceramic carbide is pure black all the way

through, not plated.

Ceramic carbide does not conduct

electricity, so it can safely be worn by those in industrial jobs.

Developed in feudal Japan by

master swordsmiths, Mokume Gane is

an ancient Japanese metalworking

technique that translates as "wood

grain metal.”

Mokume is made by fusing several

precious metals and swirling them in

a unique design.

The result is a truly one-of-a-kind design in each piece.

Carbon fiber is incredibly lightweight and offers a simple,

clean look.

Fiber-like patterns are “woven” into

the carbon to create interesting

style elements.

Carbon fiber rings are a popular

alternative to solid gold, platinum, and other lustrous metals.

If bling is your thing, a

decadent gold nugget

ring will suit your fancy!

Durable and long-lasting,

these rings can be passed

down from generation to

generation.

Each ring features Natural gold

nuggets-not man made!

Damascus steel has been regarded

for its strength and durability for centuries.

Each Damascus ring features the

expert hand-designed work of

artisan blacksmiths, and each is one-of-a-kind.

Each ring has an elegant

sophistication and can be worn

with virtually anything.
