What types of finishes are available for wedding rings?
In addition to material and shape, the finish also plays a key role in defining the character of a wedding band.
Polished finishes are smooth and reflect light intensely. They have a classic, elegant, and strikingly shiny appearance. Satin finishes reflect light much less, creating a subtle, modern look. Satin-finished surfaces have a fine, even texture and appear refined and understated. Hammered surfaces feature intentionally irregular indentations. They give the ring a unique, handcrafted look. Textured or brushed surfaces can give the ring a more modern and distinctive appearance.
It’s important to note that the surface may change over time with daily wear. Small scratches and signs of wear are a normal part of a piece of jewellery that is worn every day. Many surfaces can be refreshed later through refinishing by a jeweller.
