Description
This elegant men’s wedding ring features a curving channel that separates the platinum and white gold sections of the ring, and these design elements are accented by the combination of brushed and polished finishes. It’s a relatively simple design, but it’s also one that lends itself to customization in a number of ways, and it integrates some organic overtones along with subtle contrasts on several levels.

Two-tone Band Design
The band is 6mm wide and slightly domed on top. One half of it is made from platinum, while the other half is unplated white gold, and these two sections are divided by a channel that curves gradually back and forth as it makes its way around the ring. The soft curve of the top surface of the band combined with this gently undulating channel produce a vaguely organic effect, and the channel itself makes a nice separation between the two types of metal.
Contrasting Finishes
The top surface of both the platinum and white gold sections of the band are brushed, but the channel, which is also platinum, is polished to a high shine. This helps it stand out more clearly, and it also draws attention to the elegant, soft surfaces of the two metals on either side. Both ring fronts are also brushed, and this makes the shine of the channel as it snakes across the top surface of the ring that much more striking.Men’s Custom Wedding Bands
Customization Options
If you’re interested in customizing this ring, you might start by experimenting with different combinations of finishes. Using a sandblasted finish in place of the brushed is one option that keeps the same general contrast but introduces a different type of matte effect. Another option would be to combine a hammered and brushed finish on either all of the top surface or just on one side of the channel to make a more dramatic statement in terms of the separation of sections.
