How
long does shipping take?
Please allow 4-7 days processing time to
manufacture your wedding band. We ship our bands immediately upon
completion of the production of your band, via USPS Priority Mail.
Typically it is about 1 week total before you will have your wedding
ring in hand. Many of our Rings are in stock and will ship the same day
you order (or next business day if order is placed after 4PM PDT/PST).
Call us to inquire about possible rushes, should you need your band in a
shorter period.
18K Gold Wedding Rings
- (75% gold and 25% alloy) 18K gold is the softest and most pure gold of
the three types of karat gold. It is the most expensive choice due to
the high content of gold. 18K gold is a popular choice in diamond
wedding rings. It produces a luxurious deep yellow color and is the most
resistant to tarnishing. Because 18K is the softest band, it will show
wear sooner than the 14K and 10K bands, which are harder. However, they
are still the favored choice.
14K Gold Wedding Rings - (58.3% gold and 41.7% alloy) 14K gold is the preferred
choice of most of our customers. We consider it to be the happy medium
of these three karats. It has the strength that is needed in a wedding
band, yet it is still resistant to tarnishing. The majority of all
wedding rings are made with 14K gold, and is by far the preferred choice
of jewelers. Because we know that everyone has a personal preference, we
like to give you the choice!
10K Gold Wedding Rings - (41.7% gold and 58.3% alloy) For those who would like to
purchase a gold wedding ring, but find the 14K and 18K to be too
expensive for their budget, the 10K is a great choice. 10K gold rings
are the most affordable of the three karats. It is the hardest of the
three bands, although there is much debate as to whether 10K or 14K gold
wears longer. 10K gold is a paler yellow than the 18K gold for example.
This is often another considering factor for buyers that do not like the
rich luxurious yellow that you will find in an 18K gold. 10K gold is
more subtle.
