Good question! Picking your ring metal is important, influencing looks, price, maintenance and care. Couples may choose to buy matching or contrasting rings.
Platinum: The rarest of all available precious metals but also the strongest, whitest, and most durable.
White Gold: An alloy of yellow gold, mixed with white metal to deliver a shine comparable to platinum.
Yellow Gold: The most traditional of all wedding band metals. A timeless metal owing to its precious nature and rarity.
Palladium: Extremely popular amongst budding grooms, a member of the platinum family but 1/3 of the price.
Rose Gold: One of the trendiest metals of modern days, formulated using gold mixed with copper alloys and silver to deliver that lovely pink-red hue.
Silver: The most common of all precious metals, easier to source and a lot cheaper to buy.
Plain Wedding Bands
There is a saying that ‘less is more’ and with our plain wedding rings, you’ll find that simplicity can also mean elegance, beauty, and sophistication. Many in fact opt for a plain wedding ring as they also see it as traditional and timeless. Women tend to want a simple design to complement and elevate the beauty of their engagement ring. While men, less accustomed to wearing jewellery, time and again favour the subtlety of a Classic Court Ring. Whether you are looking for a platinum, palladium, white gold or yellow gold ring - at Orla James we offer a wide selection of wedding rings in plain designs.
For those who feel more adventurous or seek to break away from traditional wedding sets, we also have patterned and diamond wedding rings that offer more unique alternatives, which are also available at affordable prices. We at Orla James also have alternative options that grow more and more popular with each passing year, presenting differential shapes and styles from the simple wedding rings, yet offer classic style also. We understand that a wedding ring is one of the defining symbols of marriage and commitment, so we furthermore offer our customers the chance to create their own ring, from the finish of the ring to engraving options; we want our customers to love and cherish their definitive piece of jewellery, the wedding ring.
