Men Ring

Can someone tell me where I can find an engraved men's ring for my boyfriend for Christmas?

My boyfriend and I were talking last night about Christmas. I told him exactly what I wanted. He told me his ring size and everything and he said he likes engraved (on the top where it is visible) rings. He's a really soft spoken guy who is pretty much satified with anything, so it doesn't have to necessarily be something macho or anything. Just something simple! I need help so bad. I have looked virtually everywhere.
No, it doesn't have to have his name. I've tried Ebay too. I don't really have too much to go out and look because I work and we only have one car. So I was resorting to looking online. I had found a website before but it no longer exsists.

Find a shop that does custom jewelry for people. These won't be Name Brand shops but mom&pop type shops. Explain to them what you want. However, be prepared for $ticker $hock!!! It's ex$pen$ive to have custom work done.

EDIT:

I think the people here are not understanding what you're describing...or maybe I am........

However, I took your description to mean that he likes his rings to have VISIBLE designs ON the OUTSIDE of them.

The BEST way to achieve that is NOT by 'engraving'. It IS achieved by "casting" the ring using "the lost wax method" OR by having the ring "hand wraught".

Casting the ring using the lost wax method is when an exact dupilicate of the ring (which can be personalized in ANY way) is put in a special medium and the precious metal (silver, gold, etc.) is poured into the wax melting/buring the wax away leaving the metal in the exact impression where the wax WAS. *THIS* is the method that almost ALL jewelry is made today. OR it *starts* out that way and then is engraved (e.g.: a wide flat band with designs 'engraved' in it).

The way to tell if a piece has been 'engraved' or cast is that the engraved piece will have sharper edges to the designs. The cast piece will have a bit of rounding to the edges of the designs.

Hand wraught jewelry can best be described by using the Southwestern Native American jewelry as just one example. And, YES, they *do* use 'engraving' for *some* of their designs, too.

Transportation problem? Just let your fingers do the walking through the yellow pages! Then all you'll have to do is get the car by telling him you have erronds to run and go do your business.

The shops I suggested can be open most days of the week,,,ESPECIALLY since it's the Holiday Season and they want to make m-o-n-e-y.

And BTW: Just because you do business with a "Custom" shop doesn't mean you have to design the ring you buy. They ALWAYS have ready made jewelry on hand to pick from that is close to being comparable with Name Brand shops.

I just did a quick search on Y! using the term "Engraved Men's Rings" and came up with this site:

Here is the Search Page that came from:

I hope this helps.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Titanium Mens Rings – The Contemporary Look for the Modern Man

The wearing of a man wedding ring is a relatively modern phenomenon. So is the use of Titanium in Titanium mens rings.

One of the newest and classiest of the modern jewelry materials, Titanium is setting a standard in the looks of contemporary mens wedding bands.

Despite this, mens titanium rings are reasonably hard to find in your local jewelry store. Unfortunately titanium hasn’t quite made it into the consciousness of your local jewelry merchant. So if you want to find the ultimate in contemporary male jewelry, including men’s titanium rings, you have to look further affield.

Enter the internet. There is a world of choice on the net for the modern couple searching for the ideal contemporary design mens titanium wedding band.

But first, what is titanium?

Titanium is a naturally occurring element, not an alloy. In other words it isn’t just a mixture of two or more different metals to produce a third one, as alloys are. That is not to say that Titanium cannot be alloyed with other metals, just that Titanium itself is not an alloy.

It is in fact often alloyed with other metals for jewelry making to make it harder, although all Titanium including pure Titanium makes a fine jewelry material.

For the more chemically minded amongst us, Titanium is listed in the periodic table as a natural element, atomic number 22.

It was named in 1795 after the god Titan.

Titanium can even be found in space rocks. The Apollo 17 mission brought back rocks with up to 12% Titanium in them.

Because of it’s natural properties Titanium has been primarily used in the aerospace industry, and only more recently applied to jewelry making.

But why is Titanium such a great material for making mens wedding bands? A number of reasons.

Firstly it is very hard, much harder than traditional ring materials such as gold and silver. It is extremely lightweight, corrosion resistant and very strong. It is so strong in fact that rings are fashioned out of a solid block of metal, so make sure that you get your size right as resizing is usually not an option.

It is hypoallergenic, meaning that it cannot produce skin reactions or allergies as can be found with some other ring materials, though rare.

But the real reason is that it looks great! Titanium can be shaped into a wide variety of styles. It can also be colored into a stunning range of colors which can be mixed and matched.

For this reason the range of choices in mens Titanium wedding bands is much greater than for a more traditional material such as gold for example. Although gold can be altered to offer a small range of different colours, it is basically gold colored. Titanium offers a much wider range of choices in color.

Titanium also offers a choice of finish, most commonly satin, matt or polished.

Black Titanium mens wedding rings are amongst the most eye catching of all the Titanium rings. Black Titanium rings are usually a mix of black Titanium coupled with another color as an all black ring can be overpowering. But a contemporary style mens black Titanium ring is almost the ultimate in chic for the man who wants to make a statement.

Mens Titanium rings can be coupled with a wide range of precious gemstones, including diamonds, to add effect. And as Titanium is so strong it is also possible to buy tension set titanium rings.

What are these? Well the strength of the material is used to suspend a gemstone, say a diamond, between the two ends of the ring so that the gemstone is almost hanging in space in the ring. A totally modern look.

The strength of the Titanium keeps it there.

And for the more creatively minded amongst us it is possible to design your own mens Titanium ring. There are online jewellers who offer the option of making up a design for your Titanium ring that is unique only to you. You decide exactly what style, color or mix of colors you want.

Want to add a gemstone? Or more than one? Where do you want to put it in the ring? It’s all up to you.

There is no doubt that the older traditional materials used for making rings make beautiful rings. Gold or silver rings are still high on the list of choices for many men, and modern ring designs in these materials are also impressive.

But the modern man who has decided to wear his marital status on his finger shouldn’t buy a ring before he looks at the range of
Titanium mens wedding rings.

The only difficulty is making up your mind which one!
