Buyer's Tip
If you're concerned that the weight of a wedding band will be bothersome, consider titanium. Titanium is incredibly light – roughly 1/3 the weight of gold.

Titanium is incredibly hard, lightweight, and resistant to corrosion. Traditionally reserved for the engineering and aerospace industries, titanium has only recently been applied to jewelry and its popularity is growing quickly.

Purity
The strength of pure titanium requires that rings be forged out of a solid block of metal. For this reason, titanium rings cannot be resized. Titanium is available in many grades, sometimes alloyed with other metals for even greater strength. This additional strength cannot be appreciated in jewelry, so we suggest you choose jewelry with the purest grade of titanium you can find. The titanium found in Blue Nile wedding bands is 100% pure.

Weight
This metal has gained popularity quickly for its incredibly light weight – roughly 1/3 the weight of gold. Many newly married customers tell us that their titanium band was very easy to get used to wearing because of its light weight and comfort.

Safty
Some customers have expressed concern that in the case of a medical emergency, a titanium ring might be impossible to cut off. Because it is made of pure titanium, with no metals added for increased strength, your Blue Nile titanium ring can be cut off if necessary.

Care
The strength of titanium makes it an excellent candidate for those who are not easy on jewelry. While titanium may show slight scratches, it can be easily polished to keep it looking new.
