Understand the Best Metal for Men’s Wedding Band

Metal is metal, right? It is shiny and should be durable. Unfortunately, not all metals in jewelry are the same. While the popular metals throughout history such as brass, silver, gold and platinum, are valued for their rarity and luster, their ability to be malleable is one that makes them special in jewelry. The technical properties of each metal varies. We discuss it in detail in our education section, but we will also provide a brief overview here and explain why each is the best metal for men's wedding band.
