One of the popular metals used for ring-making is tungsten.  This metal gained popularity as the material used for the filaments of the first light bulb by Thomas Edison but not a lot of people truly know much about this metal. Tungsten rings didn’t make their debut in the jewelry world until the latter part of the previous century.  It’s believed that this metal emerged during the time when gold and platinum were incredibly expensive and people wanted a less expensive alternative yet more durable material for their rings. Tungsten naturally has a greyish-silver color which can be polished to a high shine so that it reflects light like a mirror.

Compared to titanium, its biggest rival as the “leading” alternative metal for rings, tungsten is heavier and even much stronger. They are somewhat similar in color but unlike titanium, tungsten cannot really be treated to come in different metallic colors. The polish of high quality tungsten rings for men can last a lifetime and most stores that sell these rings will even offer a money back guarantee if the polish fades over time.  Rings made from tungsten also boast of being hypoallergenic so they are perfect for people who have sensitive skin or those who are incredibly acidic; you can count on your tungsten ring to not make ugly green marks on your skin like other metals do when they come in contact with sweat.

Known for being a really tough metal, tungsten is not malleable.  It does not get disfigured like softer metals do when hammered.  This is the very reason why resizing is pretty much impossible for this kind of ring. It’s also hard to embellish so you can forget about sculptures of flowers or animal heads or other fun and elaborate designs. So if you’re looking for quirky rings, they certainly will not be made from tungsten.
