Tungsten Ring - Bright Frost - Pure Silver 8mm

Ring Size Guide

Ring size is determined by the inner circumference of a ring, measured in millimeters. European ring sizes are based directly on this value, which is why they are very precise and easy to determine.

Here's how to measure your ring size at home

You can easily determine your ring size yourself. There are two reliable methods for doing so.

Method 1, measuring an existing ring

• Choose a ring that fits well on the desired finger.
• Measure the inner diameter of the ring in millimeters.
• Multiply this value by 3.14 to calculate the inner circumference.

Example: An inner diameter of 18 mm results in a circumference of approximately 56.5 mm. This corresponds to EU ring size 56.

Method 2, measure your finger

• Wrap a narrow strip of paper or a thin string tightly around your finger.
• Mark the point where the end overlaps.
• Then measure the length in millimeters.
• The measured value corresponds directly to your EU ring size.

Example: A measured length of 58 mm corresponds to EU ring size 58.

Useful information:

• Measure your ring size at room temperature. Fingers swell slightly in warmth and become slightly narrower in cold weather.
• It's best to measure your ring size in the evening. At this time, your fingers are usually a bit stronger, which gives a more realistic result.
• If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size for a more comfortable fit.

Measure ring size at home

You can either measure the inner diameter of a ring that fits you well, or determine the circumference of your finger using a narrow strip of paper or a thin string.

What is tungsten?

Tungsten, also known as Wolfram, is a naturally occurring metal known for its exceptional density and hardness. In fact, it is among the hardest metals used in modern industry.

In jewelry, tungsten is mostly used in the form of tungsten carbide. This is a compound of tungsten and carbon, resulting in an extremely durable material.

Due to its high stability and noticeable weight, tungsten is particularly popular for rings. Many people appreciate the solid, substantial feel on the finger.

Why is tungsten used for rings?

Tungsten is very popular in the jewelry industry for several reasons:

• Extremely scratch-resistant
• Retains its shape for many years
• Bending or deformation is very unlikely.
• It has a noticeably solid weight.
• It looks modern, clean and high-quality

Unlike softer metals, tungsten retains its surface for a very long time, even with daily wear.

Is tungsten durable?

Yes. Tungsten is one of the most durable materials used for rings.

Its high hardness makes the material particularly scratch-resistant and very durable for everyday use. A tungsten ring will not bend and will retain its shape even under pressure.

However, because tungsten is extremely hard, it has very little flexibility. Under very strong impacts, the material is more likely to break than bend. This rarely happens in everyday life, but it's important to know.

For everyday use, tungsten offers exceptional durability and a consistently high-quality appearance.

Is tungsten waterproof?

Tungsten does not rust or tarnish under normal conditions. The material is also highly resistant to moisture.

You can easily wear a tungsten ring in everyday life, for example when washing your hands.

If the ring also has a PVD coating, it is recommended to avoid prolonged contact with chlorinated water or aggressive chemicals so that the surface remains beautiful for a long time.

Can tungsten rings be made larger or smaller?

No.

Tungsten rings cannot be adjusted or altered afterwards, as the material is too hard to be bent or stretched.

Therefore, it is particularly important to carefully determine the correct ring size before ordering. It is best to use our ring size guide for this.

Is tungsten skin-friendly?

Jewelry-grade tungsten carbide is generally very well tolerated and suitable for most skin types.

The material hardly reacts with moisture and normally does not cause discoloration on the skin.

If you have a known metal allergy, we recommend that you consult a doctor or dermatologist before wearing jewelry, just to be on the safe side.

Tungsten compared to stainless steel

Both materials are very robust, but differ in some properties.

Tungsten

• Significantly heavier and denser
• Extremely scratch-resistant
• Very dimensionally stable
• Cannot be adjusted

stainless steel

• Lighter in weight
• Very stable and corrosion-resistant
• A little more flexible
• Can be more easily customized in some designs.

If you want a ring with noticeable weight and maximum scratch resistance, tungsten is an excellent choice. If you prefer a lighter feel, stainless steel might be a better fit.
