Discover Men's Cable Rings a Sporty Motif that Recalls the Industrial Age

When one gazes long enough at any piece of art, images emerge that stir the imagination; they can even ignite curiosity about the artist's intention. Such is the case with men's cable rings. Even though these alternative men's rings may seem like just another jewelry trend to some, they have a way of recalling the grit and glamour of America's Industrial Age.

In case you're wondering what wire cable has to do with industrial innovation, or for that matter jewelry, let's take a look back in time at when the first cable car system was tested by Andrew Halladie in 1873.

Before his first cable car neared the top of Nob Hill in San Francisco, Halladie was already using wire rope in his designs for a suspension bring across the American River in Sacramento. And he was the first to implement wire rope cables for pulling heavy ore cars on tracks out of underground mines. These are just a few of the images that come to mind when looking at today's collections of men's cable rings.

Industry has found even more applications for custom cable assemblies since the late 19th century, including the operation of missile systems, commercial aircraft and space missions. High performance cable plays an important role in motion control and industrial automation, where it operates robotic equipment and keeps industrial manufacturing systems moving. From the earliest wire suspension bridges and cable cars to mission critical aerospace applications, wire cable has been a key player from the start. Maybe this explains why men's cable rings are such an appealing symbol of masculinity and strength.

First created by the Edward Mirrell Jewelry Company as part of their "Cable Sport" collection, men's cable rings have one or two narrow wire cables running through the center of an otherwise polished ring. Since their introduction, men's cable rings have become so fashionable so quickly that they're now being copied by practically every designer. The Edward Mirrell Company uses black titanium memory cable to create these rings, a resilient material that is also used in medical stents because it always returns to the shape in which it was set.

Some of the more popular varieties of men's cable rings are made from durable stainless steel and titanium, and while they are more commonly worn as fashion rings, the polished titanium version makes an eye-catching alternative wedding ring.

Another stylish way to wear men's cable rings is in a monochromatic design which pairs glossy black titanium with two natural colored cables, separated by a strip of black titanium. Also popular is a slightly domed titanium ring with a contrasting black cable inset and single cubic zirconium.

No matter how you choose to wear this new braided wire style, men's cable rings are made for men who want a masculine-looking ring, with a "twist".
