Rose Gold Wedding Rings

Even in 2022, despite how far we've come, some gender preconceptions remain surprisingly persistent. One of them is "pink is for women." We can't deny that rose gold's gentle pink color has increased in appeal among ladies. This metal is currently being employed by more men's and unisex jewelry designers in a number of remarkable ways. So, in a nutshell, guys can totally wear rose gold jewelry. Let's talk about rose gold and why a rose gold men's wedding band may very well be in your best interest.

Rose Gold. Really?

Let’s first take a look at what sets rose gold apart from the rest. First and foremost is how it is created. You might be wondering how gold becomes rose gold. Believe it or not, rose gold is not a naturally occurring metal! It's a basic mix of pure gold and copper with an orange color. The unusual pink tint is created by the combination of these two naturally occurring metals. Due to the fact that all wearable gold is an alloy of some kind, rose gold is extremely brilliant in making use of this necessity, illustrating that necessity isn't always the mother of beautiful jewelry.

Men and women should both feel free to choose the accessories and apparel that make them feel confident and cool. It's no different with jewelry. One of the reasons why new designers are emphasizing unisex or genderless designs and employing metals like rose gold for "men's jewelry" is because of this. 

How to Wear Rose Gold Wedding Rings

The fact that rose gold goes with everything is another reason why guys gravitate toward it. Rose gold looks fantastic when paired with yellow gold, white gold, platinum, or silver. So, if you are worried that your new rose gold wedding band isn’t going to match your favorite platinum and black watch, you can rest at ease knowing that it will flawlessly look great together. You can also wear it with almost any outfit — no need to worry about your rose gold watch clashing with your black, blue, brown, or gray suit. When it comes to rose gold, there's no reason to limit yourself. The only restrictions are those imposed by what you enjoy and wish to wear.

How to Care for Your Rose Gold Wedding Ring

Aside from the style options, rose gold is a good choice for guys because it is long-lasting. Your rose gold jewelry, like any other gold, will not tarnish or change color over time. Due to the copper alloy, rose gold is also more durable than traditional yellow gold jewelry. Rose gold is extremely resistant to scratches and bending. 

The same level of care is required for rose gold wedding rings as it is for yellow gold rings. Avoid exposing rose gold wedding bands to strong knocks or blows; if scratches, dents, or even bends occur, an experienced jeweler can usually repair the rings. (One of the advantages of rose and yellow gold wedding rings is that they are typically easier to maintain and repair than other metal rings.)

Wash your rose gold wedding ring in warm water with a tiny quantity of gentle soap every now and then, then dry it thoroughly with a soft cotton cloth. If the ring needs to be stored, keep it in a soft jewelry pouch away from other jewelry so it doesn't become scratched.

Rose gold wedding bands and engagement rings will not tarnish. Instead, these gleaming rings develop a rich patina over time – the process can take a lifetime – and a patina on a vintage or antique rose gold ring is extremely prized and adds to the ring's worth. Antique rose gold wedding bands should not be properly cleaned or placed in an ultrasonic treatment to preserve the patina.

Make sure that you also take your rose gold wedding ring in for a professional cleaning and inspection about every 6 months to make sure that it is not only cleaned properly, but also inspected to make sure that you keep your wedding ring in top-notch condition.
