The Different & Symbolic Look of Marvelous Black Tungsten Bands
Black Tungsten Jewelry Overview
For people who appreciate the hard and resilient nature of tungsten jewelry but whose tastes are more unconventional, Black Tungsten Rings provide an attractive and interesting option.
Black Tungsten Bands make great wedding bands for non traditional couples who want rings that are different & stand out from the usually seen gold rings, and even tungsten rings in the natural light whitish gray color.
Black Tungsten Bands also respond very well to engraving on the interior band, since the tiny lines created by the engraving tool can reveal white tungsten underneath or throw the letters into a dramatic shadow, giving your personal message a special gleam.
They will be explained in detail below, and because we believe in being honest with our customers and do not feel we need to trick anyone into buying a piece of jewelry if it?s really right for them, this article also aims to clear up some common misconceptions about black tungsten jewelry.
First, it is important to note that the term ?black tungsten? is not describing a single component but rather refers to the color of the finished product which involves a few.
A black tungsten ring gets its dark outer color through the application of another layer of metal alloy to the outer surface of a standard tungsten ring. This exterior layer does contain mostly tungsten, but to make the black opaque shine possible, titanium, carbon, and small amounts of rare-earth metals are also included in the mix.
A black tungsten ring’s black plating itself isn’t scratchproof because it is an anodized tungsten alloy added to the surface of the tungsten carbide ring later to give it this beautiful glowing black color, but it is very strong and regular tungsten itself will not scratch.
A layer of the black tungsten alloy is then secured to the entire surface of the tungsten ring through electroplating, which uses electrical current and the specific chemical properties of a metal to evenly and permanently deposit material onto another object.
There are certain expectations that a black tungsten ring will absolutely live up to.
The black tungsten ring itself is just as hard, durable, and damage-resistant as any of the other tungsten rings in our catalog.
However, the anodized black coating that gives these pieces their distinctive color is not quite as indestructible and can scratch or wear off in spots after several years.
Many black tungsten rings can have a fresh layer of the exterior black tungsten coating applied by a specialty jeweler, much in the same way that white gold rings need another round of electroplating after a few years as they lose the rhodium or silver plating that lightens the gold?s color.
The life of the black tungsten coating can also be extended considerably through proper care.
In nearly every case, the best way to clean and maintain tungsten jewelry of any kid is to gently wash them with soapy water and a soft cloth.
Black tungsten rings have an unusual and beautiful appearance that many people find symbolic.
Some customers have said that black tungsten puts them in mind of “light at the end of the tunnel”, “a light in the darkness”, and other such things that their partner and commitment mean to them.
They are also particularly appealing to men, since they can appear more masculine and less flashy than other rings.
Black tungsten rings are among the most gorgeous items I own, and their versatility and sleek appearance pull together any outfit and shine on every occasion.
