Two Tone Wedding Bands for Women

Two Tone Wedding Bands for Women

The commonest reason a woman chooses a two tone band is sitting on her other hand: an engagement ring in one color of gold and a preference for another. A band that carries both sits correctly next to a white gold or platinum ring while keeping the yellow or rose she actually wanted, and it does it without adding a single stone.

You choose the arrangement

On most designs the two colors are stripes across the width, and the arrangement is your call at the time of order: white center with yellow edges, yellow center with white edges, or alternating stripes on a wider band. Rose gold enters the same way, paired with white or with yellow. The choice is structural, not cosmetic; the boundary between the colors is where the design lives.

Color plus pattern

Beyond the plain stripes, this collection works the surface as well as the color: carved florals and cross hatch patterns in two tones, milgrain borders between the colors, diamond cut sparkle finishes, and brush finished fields against polished edges. Many of the same designs appear in the engraved bands collection, which organizes them by technique rather than color. Widths run from 4mm with most designs between 5mm and 8mm.

Upkeep, honestly

The white sections are rhodium plated, as all white gold is, and the plating dulls slowly against the yellow or rose beside it. Re-plating every year or three restores the contrast; it is routine maintenance, not a repair. Men's widths of the same idea are at men's two tone bands, matched pairs in the his and hers sets, and the rest of the collection at women's wedding rings.
