By Deborah Quick


Now that tungsten rings have become so well-known and fashionable, there are as many styles of tungsten rings out there as there are people to wear them. Let's look at a few:

Tungsten Celtic wedding bands represent a rich history and tradition and are a unique way to celebrate the art and ingenuity of one's Celtic ancestors. The Celtic tungsten rings on this page include designs that capture religious Christian iconography; interlaced, decorative knot patterns representing never-ending love; and the storied Claddagh, a token of fidelity steeped in folklore and custom.

Tungsten wedding rings in a domed style are one of the most popular, as well as classic, types of rings. A wide variety of domed tungsten carbide wedding band styles, including plain, two-tone, black tungsten, tungsten bands with inlay, laser-etched designs, and featuring diamonds, can be found at various web stores at great prices. 8mm tungsten rings refers to the ring's width and is a traditional choice for wedding bands for men, but of course, there are larger and smaller widths available to accommodate any taste.

Black tungsten rings contain an added layer to produce the solid black effect and are a cool and classy alternative to plain tungsten carbide. These cheap tungsten rings are a great price point for value-conscious shoppers yet also provide the quality and durability you would expect from a fine jewelry retailer. Tungsten's durability is second to none due to its hardness factor which prevents any kind of scratching and is particularly ideal as a men's wedding band for a guy who is always working with his hands. Tungsten wedding band rings are an increasingly popular alternative for couples on a budget looking for a great, everyday ring. If you are a traditionalist, a domed tungsten ring may be the right choice for you.

When shopping for tungsten weddings bands pros and cons are an important thing to consider. Do you like flat, domed or concave rings? Would you like to add a bit of detail through etching or engraving? Is this ring a comfort fit or standard fit ring? This is a good question to ask, because the two styles of fit cause a small difference in the sizing of the rings, generally half a size. Most tungsten rings are comfort fit and should be chosen one half size smaller than a standard fit, so be sure to ask.
