      Cobalt Rings - Pros and Cons

      There’s no doubt that the jewelry industry is taking much advantage of other metals aside from the usual precious metal classics, and for good reason. Many of these durable and affordable alternative metals are slowly becoming all the rage for wedding bands, and it's no surprise that many more soon-to-be newlyweds are showing interest in these materials. Cobalt chrome rings, for instance, are just one amongst the many alternative metals people can choose from nowadays for their wedding, and a great choice at that! Cobalt Chrome contains a plethora of positive qualities that may just be the perfect fit for your dream wedding band!

       

      What is Cobalt Chrome?

      The Star Dust Ring is a Cobalt Chrome Ring that not only has a beautiful design, but it is durable as well

      Cobalt chrome as a material is a strong and hypoallergenic metal that is commonly used for manufacturing industrial grade modes of transportation like aircraft jets. Aside from its superlative durability and scratch resistance, it is also very corrosion resistant and works well with the human body, most especially when the material in question is nickel-free. This makes cobalt chrome safe to use for people with sensitive skins who worry about possible skin irritations due to metal allergy. Cobalt chrome is used in the medical field, specifically in orthopedic implant surgeries like hip and spine replacements and dental fillings in dental industries. Its real world applications make it a particularly intriguing option in the jewelry industry.

      Can Cobalt Rings be Resized?

      At Patrick Adair Designs, we offer a fully customizable Cobalt Chrome Ring to meet any design taste

      Cobalt chrome ranks at a 7 on the moh's scale of hardness. Its a material that has a longevity even better than precious metals like gold. Its hardness and scratch resistance is surely a characteristic that is second nature to this material. While it is possible to have a 

      cobalt chrome wedding band resized, due to its hardness, its only possible to size up a cobalt chrome ring to half a size to a full size bigger.

      Cobalt vs Tungsten

      While cobalt chrome rings do have a good number of positive qualities, tungsten rings may also be quite the contender against cobalt chrome. We have summarized a quick and easy comparison between the two to help gauge the characteristics cobalt chrome possesses and help you decide whether this material is the perfect fit for your lifestyle!

       

      Durability

      Tungsten is harder and more scratch resistant than cobalt, so if you are looking for something that you can set and forget, then tungsten is your go to.

       

      Affordable

      Both cobalt chrome and tungsten rings are known to be more on the affordable side! However, tungsten is a bit cheaper due to its availability and what it's made from. Both are still much cheaper than precious metals like platinum and white gold.

       

      Resizeability

      As discussed above, cobalt chrome can be sized up in the event it is needed to. However, tungsten cannot be resized due to its extreme hardness. If you are looking for something more flexible in the event that you need a size exchange, we would recommend going with a cobalt chrome ring.

       

      Color

      Cobalt chrome has an extremely white color, similar to white gold. Its color makes it an extremely affordable alternative to white gold and gives it a very premium feel. On the other hand, tungsten comes in a natural gunmetal gray color. If you are looking for something shiny and flashy, we highly recommend going with the white metal, cobalt chrome.

      Cobalt Chrome Rings are durable and very easy to care for

The characteristics of the cobalt chrome wedding ring already do most of the maintenance for you, as they already possess impressive durability and hypoallergenic properties. that alleviates most worries from the lifestyles of natural adventurers and thrill-seekers.
