subject: Designer Rings | New Trends 2010 [print this page] Women have had access to a never-ending selection of designer jewelry for decades, but until recently men were limited to lackluster collections and simple, uninspired designs. Well thankfully, times have changed, especially when it comes to men's rings! Men's designer rings are more sophisticated and fashion-forward than ever before, with a wide assortment of metals and styles now available in all price ranges. Why settle for an ordinary ring when you can wear a ring that truly symbolizes your personal taste and style?
Men's designer rings come in many shapes and sizes, but they are most commonly seen in wedding band collections from well-known companies like Benchmark. Benchmark rings are available in gold, sterling silver, palladium and platinum, and they are known best for their striking collection of designer wedding bands. Known as the "wedding ring specialists", some of Benchmark's most popular men's designer rings are pre-set with multiple diamonds against 14K yellow or white gold. Other favorites include beveled-edge, milgrain, engraved, domed, Euro-fit and hand woven ring styles.
The Benchmark company is also known for their commitment to innovation and perfection. This is evident in their cutting-edge precision setting technology, a process that displays as much of a diamond's surface as possible without sacrificing the security of the stones setting. Another "benchmark" reached by this manufacturer is their lifetime guarantee, which essentially protects the customer from any damage incurred through normal wear and tear and even provides free resizing if a customer's ring size changes. Not many men's designer rings come with this kind of commitment to customer satisfaction.
Another popular maker of men's designer rings is Edward Mirell, who is best known for his super-modern black and gray titanium rings with harder edges and clean-cut two-toned or double-grooved bands. Mirell also makes interesting use of negative space with his split band and tension-set designs, where a single diamond is suspended within an open space cut out of the band itself. Other favorites include a Mediterranean style ring set with an elegant star sapphire or a black titanium band embedded with a 14K gold link chain.
For a more traditional selection of high quality men's designer rings in a collection of rich textures, Artcarved makes an impressive array of wedding bands. Best known for making class rings, Artcarved has expanded its offerings to include handsome designer rings made from platinum, palladium, gold, tungsten, and titanium, many of which are intricately engraved.
Whether you're searching for a commitment ring, wedding band, male engagement ring, or you just want to make a fashion statement, you can't go wrong with the number of high quality men's designer rings now available. Your only dilemma might be choosing just one!
