Wedding Bands That Can Be Customized Your Way
A wedding band can be made just for you. And be as special as your wedding day.
Have you ever looked inside a jeweler’s showcase at wedding bands, and viewed a selection of styles that were close to what you have pictured in your mind, but not quite what you were envisioning? Wedding band manufacturer Novell can help solve that problem. Almost all Novell wedding bands can be made wider, narrower, in different metals (platinum, palladium or gold), with different finishes, and much more. Their customization capabilities set them apart from nearly all other companies vying for a more visible position within the wedding band industry landscape. Your ring can literally be made your way, and just for you within a relatively short period of time. So when you think of the word “custom” and are looking for a wedding band with that special touch - think of Novell. Why settle for ordinary?
Novell Also Helps You Choose the Right Metal for Your Wedding Band
Need help with choosing the right metal for your wedding band as well? In 2008, Novell released its latest brochure - Choosing the Right Metal for Your Bridal Jewelry. This brochure is designed to help the average consumer decide which metal will be the best choice for their wedding band or engagement ring, as it is not only a symbol of love and celebration, but can also be an asset to be treasured in the years ahead. Choosing the Right Metal for Your Bridal Jewelry is available as a free download on Novell’s website, and at authorized retailers nationwide.
A Brief Overview of Each Metal
Each of the precious metals that Novell uses to manufacture their bridal jewelry – platinum, palladium and gold – can have a place in almost any jewelry collection. However, platinum and palladium both have additional benefits that contribute to everlasting durability and longevity. Novell recommends that nearly every consumer should consider the following when selecting a metal for their wedding ring as well as other jewelry:
• Choose yellow gold if you prefer a yellow color metal surrounding your diamond, or if you simply desire yellow gold to other metals.
• Choose white gold if you prefer white color and don’t mind a ring that may lose its whiteness over time or due to wear.
• Choose palladium for a silvery white color that lasts, but may currently be considered less treasured than platinum.
• Choose platinum for an eternally white, naturally enduring metal, whose beauty and rareness will be treasured for generations.
Seven Other Factors to Consider When Choosing A Wedding Band
In addition to platinum, palladium or gold, tungsten and titanium are also other options for wedding bands. Novell suggests consumers look into seven more factors while making their decision. They are as follows (but not ranked by importance):
• Intrinsic value - This is the basic worth of the metal. Prices of all metals fluctuate according to supply in the market and demand by consumers. The more pure and precious a metal, the more limited its availability tends to be.
• Life span - In addition to a metal’s ability to withstand wear and tear, lifespan is judged by certain practicalities. Both platinum and tungsten are highly durable. But tungsten rings can not be resized. If your fingers change over time, and they usually do, a tungsten ring would have a far shorter lifespan than platinum.
• Purity - How much precious metal content does your ring actually have? 14K gold is a mix of 58% pure gold and 42% non-precious metal. 18k gold is 75% pure. Platinum, palladium, titanium and tungsten are all at least 90-95% pure, but of these metals, only platinum and palladium are considered precious.
• Surface strength - All metals scratch, but with gold that scratch actually removes a sliver of metal. With platinum, scratching just ripples the surface. The displaced metal can be moved back into place by polishing.
• Restorability - Can your ring be made to look new again? Can it be refinished, re-sized, or re-conditioned easily? Platinum performs beautifully in each case. Something that can’t be said for the other metals.
• Rarity - This relates not only to the scarcity of a given metal, but to the demand for it in uses other than jewelry. For example, while supplies of both platinum and palladium are very limited, platinum is utilized in far more ways than palladium. Medical and industrial interests also compete for this already scarce metal. Greater demand on a smaller supply makes platinum more highly prized.
• Hypoallergenic qualities - Hypoallergenic metals reduce or minimize the possibility of an allergic response by minimizing potentially irritating substances. Platinum and palladium are the only hypoallergenic precious metals.
