Titanium wedding rings handcrafted with gold, platinum or diamonds, customized to your ideas and guaranteed to fit! Exotica Jewelry by Chris and Sandy Boothe.
Sometimes people wonder what they should have engraved inside their rings. How about, “My first round draft pick”? There aren’t any rules about engraving—you can get whatever you want—or nothing. We have a limit of forty characters (counting spaces as one character each) or you can pay a little extra to get two lines, doubling the length available. We like to include our logo and the metal content but this isn’t absolutely necessary.
Yeah, we’re kinda geeky—the Van de Graaff generator and massive slide rule collection confirm it. Numerous times, at art and craft shows we’ve done, we have traded jewelry for electronic oddities. So, it was only a matter of time before some of that started morphing onto our titanium wedding rings.
Our first mathematical ring had Euler’s Equation (also called Euler’s Identity) carved into the titanium and anodized in rainbow colors:
We can emboss or carve these and many other themes into titanium wedding rings. If those themes don’t thrill you or your fiance, how about skiers, fish, barbed wire, waves, mathematical formulas, airplanes, flames, or oak leaves?
We have incorporated all these themes into titanium rings and many have been very popular. Sometimes we carve directly into the titanium ring and sometimes we make dies and strike the images into the rings. What’s the difference?
How about some gemstones inside your titanium wedding ring? Wha-a-at? Where no one can see them? Why would anyone do that?
Well, one way of looking at it is it’s the couple’s secret that no one else knows about unless the wearer chooses to tell them. Others may like the symbolism of gemstones but don’t want visible bling on the ring they wear every day.
A custom ring is obviously not what you see if you walk into a store and buy something already made.
We make all our rings from scratch to the customer’s specifications, so in one sense, all of our rings are custom-made. Besides changing the overall width of the ring or just the width of an inlay, we can often mix-and-match other elements.
Since launching our titanium ring resizing service, we’ve had the opportunity to see the diamonds that other manufacturers use in their titanium rings. From smaller to larger, many times these diamonds are inferior stones, especially when viewed next to diamonds of higher quality. The sad thing is that for smaller diamonds, the price difference is not that big.
There are a couple of myths circulating about titanium wedding rings. These false tales are believable because of, quite accurately, titanium’s incredible strength.
TitaniumRingsForever.com and Chris Boothe are pleased to present this video, demonstrating the coloring of titanium and niobium through electrical anodizing — no paints or pigments involved! A process combining science and art, it is used in the creation of our titanium wedding rings and other titanium jewelry.
One of the more satisfying kinds of jobs we do is custom work that requires us to take a customer-supplied image and turn it into a ring. Most images will convert nicely to a titanium wedding band or promise ring and we can say quickly whether something is possible or not. We can usually color the image however the customer wants, with a few exceptions.
