What is tungsten jewellery made from?
Tungsten is a natural element which can be found in rocks in the ground. Most tungsten rings are made from 85% tungsten and 15% another element. Firstly, the elements are ground down and mixed together and then compressed with high pressure.
After making the form of a ring, it is then put in a furnace at extremely high temperatures. The ring is then carefully cut and shaped with diamond shaped tools.
The result is a scratch proof, polished and durable ring that will last a lifetime.

Tungsten is more scratch proof than any other metal used in jewellery. This makes it the perfect choice for those who are always outdoors and lead a very active lifestyle.
