      What Makes a Black Ceramic Ring Unique and Affordable?

      Black wedding bands aren't just a fleeting fashion trend: people who want to be bold and different will likely be using them for decades to come. They not only are really cool to look at but also have awesome meanings like connection, commitment, and power.


      If you're looking for an awesome women's or men's ring for your wedding, black ceramic is an awesome material to look into. Read on to learn what this material is, why it's awesome, and some of the best styles that you can choose for yourself and your new spouse!

      What is Black Ceramic?

      Not to be confused with ceramic clay pottery, black ceramic is a material made from titanium carbide. Titanium carbide consists of titanium and carbon atoms. This combination makes a metal similar to tungsten in terms of hardness.


      Since this is one of the hardest materials that money can buy, black ceramic rings are completely scratch-resistant. In fact, since the metal is a 9 on the Mohs hardness scale, the only materials that can scratch its surface are moissanite and diamond. It is very similar to tungsten carbide in this regard.

      Properties of Black Ceramic Wedding Bands

      In addition to their durability, black ceramic rings are deep and lustrous. They feature one of the darkest black hues that will never fade or chip. Unlike most black metals that happen to be ion plated or anodized black, ceramic by nature is black which means over time it will stay black whereas black tungsten or black titanium can chip/fade over time. Black ceramic is able to maintain a beautiful polished finish that will last forever. Much like the love that you and the partner that you're giving it to share, a black ceramic band is made to last a lifetime.


      Usually, black ceramic rings will have beveled edges and a comfort fit finish. Most styles have a gorgeous opal inlay that showcases other colors and exotic materials. Black ceramic is great for those who don't love the feel of jewelry on their fingers because it is extremely lightweight but still very durable. And like tungsten rings, ceramic rings do not contain any extra additives and are completely hypoallergenic.

      Why Buy a Black Ceramic Wedding Ring?

      In addition to the above properties, black ceramic rings are unique because they offer the opportunity to display and showcase many materials. Black is a neutral hue that goes with virtually any other color, so you can select the appropriate inlay for yourself and your partner. This makes it the perfect wedding ring to customize, make your own, and complement with a laser engraving.


      Black is also a color of certainty and strength. This makes it a popular symbol for weddings since it expresses certainty in the commitment that you're making. In fact, it got to be so popular that black rings have taken on the meaning of eternal commitment in recent years!


      If you're wondering what makes black ceramic affordable, it's the fact that the material is so common. Zirconium isn't a rare material and is mined in abundance, so you don't need to pay a lot for it. The true appeal of these rings lies in the stones that they showcase, so that's what you'll be primarily paying for. Other than black ceramic, the only other natural black material suited for a wedding band is black carbon fiber, which is a great non-metal alternative.

      Deep Space

      If you are a space enthusiast, our Deep Space ring may be right for you. The black ceramic trim frames an inlay of strontium aluminum glow crystals that glow bright green in the dark when charged with UV light.
