Plain Gold Wedding Bands

    View: 
Though there are now many varieties of wedding rings for every couple to choose from, the classic plain wedding band pays homage to a much more simplistic time in our history. Though the wedding band itself is over 4,000 years old, the plain wedding ring has a much different story than its counterparts. A plain wedding band was originally derived not from beauty, or tradition, but from necessity.



When the settlers landed in America they believed in an austere, efficient manner and lifestyle. There was no room in their lifestyle for frills such as riches and jewels. They had work to do and believed that in a good day's work lay their reward. In keeping with this tradition, when they married, the groom did not put a ring on the bride's finger, but a thimble! The thimble was symbolic in its own right. In those days, a thimble was a useful object which would protect a woman while she worked. This was the statement her husband was making as well. It was not, as feminists argue, a way to keep women from owning things, rather it was a statement of protection and dedication to their union. After the marriage, a woman would have a townsperson help her detach the thimble from the small metal or brass ring at the bottom. She would wear the thimble ring on the fourth finger of her left hand to show that she was married.

Today the plain wedding bands do not have to be soldered by a blacksmith to convey the same meaning. When a bride and groom exchange wedding bands they are promising not only ‘til death do they part, but to honor and respect each other, and to dedicate themselves to enriching one another's lives. We choose the plain wedding band not only as a nod to simpler times but also as a statement of a classic, strong union that will weather the tests of life and time.

Price can matter also when selecting a wedding band. Online jewelers are an excellent place to look for wedding bands and jewelers such as Wedding-Band-Ring.Com, http://wedding-band-ring.com and other jewelers, offer plain wedding bands starting as low as $100! Do your research, shop around, and find the wedding band that is suited for you!
Plain Gold Wedding Bands
A plain wedding band is definitely not 'plain looking' although it is unadorned, elegant, and simple. Plain never means ordinary but does stand for a wedding band of elegant simplicity and this type of ring definitely says 'classic'. Made from gold, white gold, platinum or other metals the plain wedding band has a natural beauty and glory all its own. Some people may think that a plain wedding band without any design elements such as central cables or edge stripes would look lackluster but nothing could be more incorrect. On a simple or plain wedding band, there are no distractions to take away from the material and finely crafted workmanship. Whether made of traditional yellow gold or white gold, plain wedding bands are stylish rings designed by some of the finest artisans. Unlike years ago when plain wedding bands were traditionally very heavy and wide, band widths today are often 2 mm to 4 mm wide so have a beautiful richness in a narrower form.

You can choose to have a plain outer band on your wedding ring but that does not mean you have to leave the inside plain, without any engraving. Have a personal message engraved inside the wedding bands such as the wearer's name, date of marriage or special saying. The unadorned, bold look of a plain band represents purity and the special union, profound love and admiration between two people. The sheer beauty and sheen of this beautiful plain wedding band is a powerful symbol. Precious gemstones, scrolls and other ornamentation found in many wedding bands are lovely but many people prefer a plain wedding band that carries its own weight because of its elegant, beautiful simplicity.

A plain platinum wedding band does not need any type of adornment, as it is sensational in appearance. Platinum maintains its symmetry, holds its shape, is very strong and resists nicks and scratches. Platinum rings are ninety to ninety-five percent pure metal so have exceptional luster and are brighter with more substance that other precious metals such as gold and silver. An ordinary wedding ring made from platinum requires nothing but itself, because the ring is an elegant, stylish, lovely work of art that anyone, male or female, could wear with pride.

A yellow gold, plain wedding band is still the most popular choice of women and men everywhere because nothing can take its place. There is 24 c gold but it is prone to bending and twisting out of shape. Most people choose 14 c or 18 c, as it is harder, with 18 c being the most popular. There are several choices in color, such as yellow gold, white gold and rose gold so you should pick a color for your wedding band that suits your complexion, personality, or just because you love the looks. Be sure to look at comfort fit plain wedding bands, so your ring not only looks spectacular but also feels wonderful on your finger. Any wedding bands, including plain wedding bands, symbolize long lasting love and commitment so be sure to select yours after much deliberation.
