What is it about European men that make women swoon?  Is it their persistent 5 o’clock shadow or how they can talk about history and art just as fluently as American men talk about football?  Maybe it’s just that women are more in touch with their artistic side than men, and we’re more easily romanced by the artsy and cosmopolitan lifestyle of Europe.   Whatever the reason, if you consider yourself a “bon vivant”, and are more likely to visit an art museum than a sporting event, it could influence the type of wedding jewelry you choose.  In fact, one of the most attractive collections of men’s white gold wedding bands was created with your preferences in mind.

 

Ladies, if you have a weakness for anything European and you like to “dress your man” accordingly, then “Euro-fit” men’s white gold wedding bands are definitely worth a look. And guys, you will appreciate the simple, masculine style of these wedding rings too.

You may be wondering, what does a collection of men’s white gold wedding bands have to do with European fashion?  If you’ve spent any time in Western Europe, you probably noticed some subtle differences in the way European men dress, and this extends to the type of ring they choose for a wedding band.  If you’re like me, then you want your man to have that European “swagger”, a look that can only be described as worldly-wise and fashion-savvy.  A man can achieve this look in many ways, but it is most noticeable in his choice of personal accessories.

 

As soon as I saw the latest collections of men’s Euro-fit wedding rings, I knew this would be the perfect choice for my fiancé, and I was right, we both fell in love with these rings right away. What makes a Euro-fit ring different from all the other men’s white gold wedding bands on the market?

 

Here are some of the key differentiators:

•         The main difference between Euro-fit rings and Western style wedding bands is their thickness.  A Euro-fit ring sits higher on the finger than other men’s wedding rings because it is .5 mm thicker.  For example, a Euro-fit ring is 2.3 mm and a traditional ring is 1.8 mm thick.

•         In addition, the most popular European styled men’s white gold wedding bands are very simply designed.  It is rare to find a Euro-fit band that is carved, engraved or decorative in style.

•         Euro-fit rings are most often seen in designer collections of men’s white gold wedding bands, but they are also available in yellow gold.

•         Just like many other designer wedding rings, Euro-fit rings are made with a comfort-fit.  This means the inside edges are curved so it slips on easily.

 

A slightly thicker ring with a higher profile may not seem like a major difference in design, but this feature gives the ring an “edge” that is surprisingly stylish.  Fashion insiders have called men’s white gold wedding bands with a Euro-fit a “modern day classic” and American men like the way a Euro-fit ring stands out without being too flashy.

 

Where do you buy a Euro-fit ring?  One of the best sources I’ve found for these designer bands is an online store called JustMensRings.com.  In addition to their impressive selection of men’s white gold wedding bands, Just Men’s Rings sells countless other men’s rings in every style, metal and price range.

A diamond is just like the love you share with the special man in your life. It will last forever. Chances are he presented you with a stunning diamond engagement ring when he proposed. Or your wedding band is studded with diamond. Why don’t you show your love that he is the one for you with a special men’s diamond ring?

Most Common Aspects of Men’s Diamond Rings. Men’s diamond rings feature designs that strike a balance between style and simplicity. They tend to be more minimal than women’s rings. Another difference between men’s and women’s diamond rings lies in the settings. The most common setting for women’s jewelry is the prong set. Prongs, or claws, rise up from the band to secure the diamond in place. Men’s diamond rings typically feature the channel setting, where the diamonds are placed into the band itself. The good news is that this setting prevents an active man from snagging his ring on fabric during his day.

White gold, yellow gold, palladium, and platinum are your metal options for these rings. It’s a good idea to skip yellow gold. That diamond ring will already draw a little extra attention. Unfortunately, thanks to bad mobster movies, men’s gold jewelry has somewhat of a cheesy reputation. The lighter metals look more masculine, minimal, and will showcase the diamonds better than yellow gold.

The channel setting provides for beautiful designs for men’s diamond rings. These rings often have many diamonds in a row (or rows!). The princess cut diamond is in a square shape, and a row of them look particularly impressive. Or, a popular design incorporates multiple different cuts, for some added texture. An impressive ring that will sure to make him smile is one that alternates square diamonds with rectangular diamonds (also known as the baguette). Solitaire rings are also an option.

A Diamond Wedding Band for Him. Let’s face it, that wedding band is the most important piece of jewelry he will own. It’s symbolic of your wedding vows, so it had better be special! Pick a wedding band for him (and for you!) that features diamond. You can easily find matching diamond his and hers rings. A great, convenient way to do this is to buy a trio bridal set. These sets feature complementary ring for the bride and groom. The bride will find a diamond engagement ring and a wedding band, and there is a wedding band for the groom. Pick a set that features diamond.

Remember it with Diamond. Maybe you will receive an anniversary ring—another diamond ring—for your first wedding anniversary. Why not use this special occasion as a way to celebrate your husband, too? Get him a diamond ring to mark the first of many anniversaries to come. Valentine’s Day is also an occasion to show him your love. Say it with diamonds for a special, memorable evening.

An unexpected and meaningful way to show your love is with a men’s diamond ring. He’ll never want to take it off!
