In order for us to make you the best fitting ring possible it is important for you to provide us with an accurate ring size. To obtain your ring size you have several options:

1. A Local Jeweler: Most jewelers will be happy to help you find your correct ring size. We suggest asking them to use a caliper or micrometer for the most accurate sizing. These specialized instruments are more sensitive (and therefore more reliable) than ring wands or sticks. Another thing to keep in mind is that you will want to be sized at your preferred width. The average wedding band is 6.4mm, but we can make our rings any width you desire! That being said, if you are a size 8 at 6.4mm you may very well be an 8.5 at 7.9mm or wider. Because it will cover more of your finger, the wider the band, the more snug the fit, so it is important to keep both ring size and width in mind when getting sized.

2. MRD Custom Aluminum Sizers: If you have a general idea of what your ring size might be, we can make you a set of custom aluminum sizers (plain aluminum bands) in three different sizes at your preferred width. This allows you to spend time wearing each sizer for a day or two and finding out which one offers the most comfortable fit. Finger size can fluctuate slightly throughout the day due to water intake, temperature, etc. so this is an excellent way to get an accurate representation of exactly how your final ring will fit. We request that customers purchase their chosen ring(s) at the same time as the sizers. We ship you the sizers along with a SASE for convenient return. Once you provide us with your final ring size we begin making your rings!

We make bands of all widths – narrow and wide! Our most commonly requested widths are:

If you would like us to suggest a width complimentary to your size and/or choice of ring, just ask!

Titanium bands are jewelry without compromise – strong, impermeable and lightweight, they offer the best of both worlds: beauty and durability. Each of our rings are carefully handcrafted from a single billet of pure titanium and all of our inlays are securely stabilized to preserve their natural durability. With a unique ability to take on a variety of finishes as well as its glorious color and shine, titanium is the perfect material for the perfect ring!

We have sold our rings to professional chefs, firemen, surfers, and trapeze artists, and have only heard back from them how thrilled they are with their choice and how amazed they are that their ring can withstand their lifestyle. Having said all of this, we back all our rings 100% and will always fix or replace an inlay should it need it. We care about our rings and appreciate the opportunity to share them with people who care about how their bands are made.

When we choose an inlay material, we do so with two things in mind: durability and beauty. Many of the woods we use for our wood inlays are ultra stabilized under a patented high pressure process, making them impermeable to water and incredibly resistant to scratches. Some of the woods we use (like the Bloodwood or Cocobolo) for example, are chosen because they are so high in natural oil content that they naturally repel water. All of our inlays are fit for swimming, dish-washing, showering etc., so you never have to take off your band!

Anodization is the process that produces those fabulous accent colors you see on our bands. By passing electricity through titanium in a conductive bath, a transparent titanium-oxide layer is formed on the band’s surface. The amount of voltage in the bath determines the thickness of the oxide and color produced. Each iridescent color is seen through the refraction of light on the transparent oxide layer. Because the colors are optically created, they may look different depending on the time of day, viewing angle and light source. Anodization is not permanent, and will eventually fade and wear over time. This is why we only anodize on the interior and protected groove of our bands. If you ever feel like your ring could use a new blast of color, we will be happy to re-anodize it for you free of charge!

Absolutely! We can engrave the interior or exterior of your band with a personalized message. Please make sure to send us the phrase exactly as you want it to appear on the ring. If your engraving will require a special symbol or font, please email it to us as a jpg. file. Examples of Wedding Ring Inscriptions.

This urban legend has been widespread by jewelry retail staff who want to steer customers towards pricier gold and platinum bands. They may tell you that your titanium wedding band could only be cut off by specific and expensive equipment not readily available in most hospitals and ER facilities. After all, greedy jewelers know that it’s not very romantic to think about losing one’s finger to the noose of its own wedding band.

While it is true that titanium is tough, (its name derived from the ‘Titans’ of Greek mythology), it is quickly and easily cut with a common ring cutter (standard equipment in hospitals). You can be assured that titanium wedding bands are made out of commercially pure titanium grades which have all the advantages of corrosion resistance and durability without the indestructible “scary”-strength we associate with aero-space titanium alloys. Gold may cost you an arm and a leg, but titanium will never cost you a finger!
