Wedding Rings

[SarahSlone]

My husband and I have been looking for unique wedding rings. All we have seen is the same old big diamond rocks. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[Mrs.Goff]

I think that we need more information. What do you consider unique? Are you looking for wedding bands, an engagement ring or both?

Do you not like diamond solitaires? Have you considered a colored diamond or another colored stone?

Is it that you don't like the simplicity of a simple solitaire with a plain band? If that's it have you considered a solitaire with a wrap of some sort?

BTW, Welcome to OW. Tell us about yourself.

It you want truly unique then I would look into having rings custom made. It might be more expensive, but might be worth it to get something no one else will have.



eta: BlueNile has a build your own ring thing; I am sure other jewelers might have this too. I guess it depends on what you are going for. Do you want a diamond, but not in a traditional setting? Do you want another gemstone? I would look into the custom thing and talk to someone that does this about what you are looking for.

:goodluck:

i saw this post and though i replied to it - :( - first time so maybe i made a mistake - anywho my husband and i used objectfetish to get a custom wedding ring set from an artist in sweden who engraged our names with katakana and kangi - totally unique wedding rings - nobody else could have them. (i get it no links)

My husband and I didn't want traditional rings, either! Here are some things we were looking at that seemed non-traditional to us (they might still be normalish to you, though). I hope they give you some ideas!

Hand-woven bands - I still want one of these for my right hand - so pretty!

Sapphires! DH picked out a sapphire ring for me. This company is great - the people are really nice and the stones are all untreated! You can also buy loose stones from them to bring to a custom jeweler, but I'm linking you to the ring section.

Mokume gane - DH's ring was by James Binnion. His site is here -

A vintage ring might also appeal - check out antique jewelry stores!
