"More than a ring, a promise to last a lifetime."
A wedding ring is a lifelong symbol of love and commitment, worn every day as a reminder of a special bond. Selecting the perfect ring should be a meaningful and enjoyable experience, and understanding the key factors - such as metal choice, style, and fit - can help make the decision easier.
Our wedding rings are crafted in solid gold or platinum, ensuring both beauty and durability for a lifetime of wear.
Gold remains a timeless choice, offering warmth and classic appeal, while platinum is extremely durable, and hypoallergenic.
When choosing a metal, it is important to consider both its longevity and how it will pair with an engagement ring.
For those who wear their engagement ring daily, choosing a wedding ring in the same metal is highly recommended.
Different metals have varying levels of hardness, and pairing a softer metal, such as 18ct gold, with a harder one, like platinum, can lead to uneven wear over time.
A matching metal also ensures a consistent appearance. White gold, for example, has a slightly warmer tone, whereas platinum is naturally bright white. Over time, these differences may become more noticeable if the metals do not match.
The different materials: colour & characteristics
9ct yellow gold
Colour: Warm, soft yellow with a slightly muted tone compared to 18ct.
Durability: More durable than 18ct due to a higher percentage of alloy metals.
Composition: 37.5% pure gold, mixed with copper and other metals.
Tarnish Resistance: Can develop a patina over time but is generally low-maintenance.
9ct white gold
Colour: Naturally a soft, warm white with subtle grey undertones.
Durability: Stronger than 18ct white gold and resistant to scratches.
Composition: 37.5% pure gold, mixed with palladium and other alloys.
Maintenance: We do not use rhodium plating, meaning the colour remains consistent without needing re-plating.
18ct yellow gold
Colour: Rich, deep yellow with a luxurious warmth.
Durability: Softer than 9ct due to a higher gold content but still durable for everyday wear.
Composition: 75% pure gold, mixed with copper and other metals for strength.
Tarnish Resistance: Highly resistant to tarnish and corrosion.
18ct white gold
Colour: A naturally soft, creamy white with subtle warmth.
Durability: Softer than 9ct white gold but still durable for daily wear.
Composition: 75% pure gold, mixed with palladium or other white metals.
Maintenance We do not use rhodium plating, so the metal retains its natural white tone without the need for upkeep.
platinum
Colour: Naturally silvery-white without the need for plating.
Durability: Extremely strong and dense, making it highly resistant to wear.
Composition: Typically 95% pure platinum with a small percentage of other metals.
Tarnish Resistance: Does not tarnish but develops a soft patina over time, which can be polished if preferred.

The perfect wedding ring should reflect personal style while complementing the engagement ring.
A classic band is a timeless and versatile choice that pairs beautifully with any engagement ring. For engagement rings with larger settings or more intricate designs, a shaped band might be the best option to ensure the two rings sit flush together.
Those looking for something extra may consider textured or stone-set bands, which add a unique touch while still remaining practical for daily wear.
If you’re unsure of which style will suit your ring, don’t worry. Choosing the perfect ring is a personal decision, and we are here to help guide you through the process.

To ensure a stress-free experience, wedding rings should be ordered at least four to six months before the wedding day.
This allows ample time for designing, creating and delivery, as well as any necessary adjustments.
If a custom design is being considered, starting the process even earlier ensures every detail can be perfected.
