The rarest and most precious of all materials is not gold or platinum like you might expect, but a metal you’ve possibly never heard of: tantalum. There’s a good reason for this. Tantalum is the rarest stable element in our entire solar system, with just one atom of tantalum for every 181 billion atoms of other elements.[1] That makes tantalum far less abundant than gold, or any of the traditional precious metals.[2] In addition to its scarcity, tantalum possesses noble qualities that elevate it from all other metals when it comes to watchmaking and jewellery. Perhaps foremost amongst these is tantalum’s incredible durability in its pure, unalloyed state.

Where did you hear this? Does that mean ALL the platinum family metals they use for jewelry? That sounds very odd - as it could eventually eliminate platinum repair stock, for sizing platinum rings, and repairing platinum pieces of all types. What about the other platinum family metals that are even more rare, like Rhodium, Osmium, Iridium, Ruthenium, and Palladium?

I'm no professional but making rings that people wear as a symbol of their love and commitment to eachother .... it's just very satisfying... oddly satisfying... even for the wearer ... even he/she knows that what they r wearing is not a mass manufactured stuff off a lifeless corporation's shelf. It has been personally made just for them by someone by hand.

Depending on how the ring was made in the first place, I have found that most people who wear their rings on a daily basis, never removing it for specific activities, work, home maintenance, etc., except for things which will damage gold, such as exposure to chlorine (in laundry bleach, swimming pools or hot tubs;) or other activities which may cause permanent damage to the metal, can generally get 2-4 years of wear at the most before their ring needs replating. Mine were purchased and put on in November of 1975, and July of 1976. Both of them were worn on a daily basis, except for activities which may have damaged the metal, or the Diamond, and definitely needed replating by the end of 1977. However, the cost of it was too much for us to afford by that time, as my husband had been honorably discharged from the Air Force, had moved the two of us to his "home of record," which was Illinois, (from my home in Virginia) and neither of us were employed for a while. It took quite a while for us to get everything to the point where the money for such things was available. By that time, I needed to get my wedding band resized, since I was pregnant with our daughter. Having the ring resized automatically got it replated, as that was a part of the process. It surely did look brand new at that point! It only seemed to last about 2 - 3 years at a time after that. Then we changed to yellow gold, since we had discovered 2 days after we got married that my husband was allergic to the nickel in his white gold ring! So, no more replating!

@@Loganersatz - Tiffany and Cartier aren't the only ones, but they do have a basic inventory of diamonds in each location that they actually own in their general stock for their "Brick and Mortar" store locations, where you can go in person to design and/or purchase a ring on site, and walk out with. They also have a group inventory to pull from, plus they can move stones from store to store on pending sales. Many retailers have this availability besides Tiffany and Cartier. VCA - Van Cleef & Arpels - also have diamond inventory on site; plus the independent jewelers who have a smaller on site inventory of stones to work with. It depends solely on how much of their inventory budget they have to sink into a diamond stock. They ALL can get at least overnight delivery of specific stones from whatever supplier with whom they choose to work. They also have **access to** a much larger inventory of diamonds held by diamond holding companies, who make their inventory available to retailers, without the retailers having to invest their inventory dollars in having them on site. For instance, having over 200,000 diamonds on site in one place for one company is simply impossible from an inventory investment, storage space and security level. But, they do have wholesale access to the stones, pending prior sale on a time basis - i.e., first come first served.

@Loganersatz 5 жыл бұрын
@@sharid76 I understand the point you're trying to make but in regards to the old jewelry houses, it simply isn't true. Tiffany et al sort through the diamonds and choose the best of the best, their cast offs are put into the general population for other stores to look through and access via catalogue. The major houses then have their own private inventory they can move from store to store to use as necessary. No one location would have all of the diamonds, they're dispersed by market and demand across the world. You cannot get a Tiffany selected diamond from James Allen nor would you get a James Allen stone from Cartier. Online retailers take the liberty of compromising on each of the 4 C's to provide a wider range and lower price to their customers, which is their entire business model. I'd hazard to guess that many online discount diamond providers aren't selling top grade D F/IF grade diamonds at all, customers who are willing to spend the amount of money these cost are going to the big houses not only for quality but a luxury experience, not something being shipped to their home by amazon.

With my size, my hands are also thinner than most and I’ve learned since getting my girl our rings that 4mm is the perfect width for me (I always felt like the standard 6+mm was too bulky for my hands). So while I’m not particularly learning anything new on that front, I’m glad the information is being put out there.

Platinum isn't worth the look in my opinion. It will scratch and look exactly like sterling sanding wicked more expensive for not much better of a look. Gold will scratch too but not as bad for the maintenance. And the difference between Platinum and palladium isn't that much. If you want a light ring get titanium, but it will scratch worst of all. And one important note which wasn't mentioned that's VERY important is that comfort fit sizes differently than standard fit. I am a 6.5 comfort fit and a 7.25 standard. And it's not a standard between the two, I've seen a 2 size difference and a no size difference. Tungsten is nice but fragile like a ceramic plate and can't be sized at all like cobalt, stainless steel, or titanium too. Just my 2 cents and then some.

Sure I myself could tell the difference between sterling and platinum but that was only because I was selling it and looking at it all day. Most people won't be able to. And most people wouldn't feel like it's worth it compared to 14kw when they look at the price.

@@staaswolter641 I haven't had any problems with my ring getting too dinged up. There are a few jewellery brands in the market now that sell 24k gold jewellery based on spot prices with minimal mark up. Or you can go to Asia and buy 24k jewellery. Either option, you get more for your money. Jewellers like Tiffany have 5-6x markup. These 24k jewellers usually have 0.1-0.3x markup.

I have beginning to look at rings for my boyfriend. This will help. Out of curiosity, how can I sneakily figure out his ring size if he doesn’t typically wear or have any rings?

Rebecca Alexander maybe just ask him? I know proposals are all about that “surprise” but it should be something you’ve long discussed so you know you’re both on the same page for your life path? Beyond that tho, maybe ask him to go with you to get sized because he has the same size hands as a friend or sibling that you’re looking to buy for for Xmas or a birthday and want him to be your mannequin :3

I wish I could get married right now but she's in Philippines trying to take care of the paperwork but then again I don't know what her plans are I just wish you was already here but when we do get married if she decides to hurry up with the paperwork we're going to have a matching rings but I'm going to tell her we're going to get camouflage rings I'll get the blue and she'll get the pink because I want my wedding rings to be totally different from everybody else's which that's okay but right now it's been about three years she should already been out here I don't know what's going on but I'm happy for you send a prayer for you so you can have a wonderful life with your new wife

I've heard that there's green gold, although it's a LOT LESS common. just throwing it out there if someone's interested. but don't be thrown off with pretty photoshopped pictures on the internet, ask your local jeweler about it

Babe picked out a damascus ring with a brass stripe and redwood liner. I picked out a pale mint green resin ring with copper flake cast it in. We both bought one another rings we picked! I also picked him up a stainless band for when he doesn't want to wear something fancy. My fancy ring is sterling with opal and obsidian.

I know this is late, but the mm is just the width of the band and is totally dependent in your taste. Tho I’d say since your hands sound pretty big, I’d go 7mms at least. Completely up to you though.

Thank you so much for this helpful video! Also, I really appreciated the way you delivered it-you spoke calmly, in a well modulated voice, and at a very good audio level. I like your friendly but "sensical" way of speaking, rather than acting silly or trying to sound "clever", like a lot of these types of videos come out! I am a widow who has always loved rings, & I have a traditional 14k yellow wedding set (.66tcw) which I take good care of, & various yellow & rose gold, & silver bands which I wear in place of my diamonds. But I also want to take good care of them, too. So I have a small collection of stainless steel & and 3 tungsten rings which I am waiting for. They are ionically plated with various colors of gold. For when I am doing serious grocery shopping, food prep, laundry, etc. I was wondering about silicone, for when I am doing my man friend's stacked up dishes, etc. I appreciate your opinion of silicone rings, bc they did not sound too appealing, but I can see a place for them when I do really serious work. So I think I will pick up on one. I do like comfort fit domed rings. Different widths. Thank you again!!

Does it really take 10-15 years for the rhodium to fade/rub off from a rhodium-plated white gold ring? I just recently read that they usually need re-plating after only 12-18 months. I really want to understand this, because I just spent nearly all day looking for the right ring for my fiancé since the one we found that he likes a lot isn’t made with platinum, and we don’t want to have to re-plate it every 1-2 years. Thanks for the helpful video!

Well it's been about 3 years I still haven't got married yet to my sunshine she's in Philippines I'm not sure what's taking so long with the paperwork but if I do get married to her I am going to have a different rings from all other rings I want a blue camouflage ring and I want her to have a pink camouflage ring to be different and that's okay but she wants simple rings and I'm not going to let her overpower Me by simple rings I want a different tradition rings but camouflage because I really like camouflage a lot if one more thing when I Do by rings on eBay because I like to wear different rings on my finger how come sometimes they don't. Size half some do and some don't right now I got size 13 and 1/2 on my second finger Indianapolis Colts and it's supposed to be a snug fit but it's not turning is there something wrong with that cuz if I had size 13 it'll be too tight

I'm in the UK and need to get sized for a comfort fit ring I am buying from the US. Its a 6mm band and I was wondering if I should adjust my size for the comfort fit? I have read somewhere that for 6mm you should just order your regular size but for 8mm and above you should go a half size down but I wasnt sure if that is correct or if the half size is talking in US or UK terms.
