Not just a plain band
Adding a surface texture to a plain wedding ring adds a bit of interest to a plain band.

Practical reasons for choosing a textured ring
If you have a manual job, or undertake an activity that is likely to damage a plain band, adding a texture can be a sensible choice, as scuffs and scratches will be less obvious.

Hammered finishes
We use various techniques to apply textures. Some involve hitting the ring with something, such as a hammer, or a punch of some description.
Essentially, the effect produced on the ring depends on what you are hitting it with, and how hard you hit it!
The texture can be small and subtle or large and more obvious.
These rings show different finishes produced by hammering.
Combining texture with colour
As our rings are bespoke, nothing is standard. If you are looking for a particular effect we can use a range of different techniques and tools to achieve the look you have in mind.
Sometimes textures can be produced by drills and burrs, similar to those used by dentists.
This segmented band, which is inlaid with gold, was textured with a burr, and then polished.
Organic textures
We have a another category of wedding ring that we describe as organic. These vary a lot in design, but they tend to be more "random", with natural-looking textures.
To see more examples see our Organic Wedding Rings page.
His and Her wedding rings with texture
Many couples like the idea of having matching wedding rings, but the width and size are often very different. So how does this work with textures?
Well, it’s often just a case of scale. We can make a small narrow lady’s wedding ring with a fine texture and scale it up to suit the groom’s hand, making a bigger, wider band with a heavier texture. They are not identical, but they do match one another, at the same time as suiting the hand of each partner.
For a bit of inspiration, here are some examples of textured wedding rings we have made in the past.
