Description
This elegant men’s wedding ring features a mokume gane inlay in an unplated white gold band with a polished finish. It was created for a client from Bellevue, WA, and just like all of the pieces you see on our site, it can be customized to suit your individual style. We’re happy to work with you in person in our Bellevue, WA showroom, or we can collaborate entirely online to finalize the details of your piece.

Mokume Gane
The center portion of this ring contains a lovely mokume gane pattern formed by the forging together of 14k palladium white gold and sterling silver. The technique used to produce this type of piece was first developed in Japan centuries ago, and it takes great skill and extensive experience to master.
Fortunately, our artisans have both of these in abundance, allowing us to bring you beautiful pieces like this one. Because of the nature of the mokume forging process, no two rings made this way will ever be exactly alike, which means this is a great way to ensure your custom piece is truly unique. Browse our Mokume Jewelry Gallery.
Unplated White Gold
The body of the band is made of unplated white gold, and its warm champagne color is reflected in the white gold portion of the mokume as well. The rails bordering the mokume section slope downward slightly, giving a softer edge to the piece, and the two sections of the top are separated by narrow grooves that frame the mokume band perfectly.
Custom Wedding Rings
The look of any mokume piece is dependent on the types of metals used and the way they’re combined. That means that even a ring as minimalist as this offers plenty of options for customization. And whether you have a clear idea about what you want or not, our experienced team will work closely with you throughout the custom design process until we’ve fully captured your vision.
