Wedding bands have been worn for many centuries, they are jewels with special meaning and significance. The concept of a wedding band pair takes this meaning a step further. Many experts believe that a pair of matching wedding bands help to strengthen the personal bond between the couple. It is not the price of the wedding band pair that matters, a gold or silver pair of wedding bands would therefore be equally meaningful. It has been rightly said that, half the significance of matching wedding bands is in the design, the other half lies in the minds and hearts of the couple that wears them. In this page, we try to cover the issue of wedding bands for him and her from, both angles. We look at the technical aspects that are relevant to your pair of wedding bands and also discuss the deeper meaning of such rings.
The information that we provide here is relevant to all types of matching
wedding bands. You could get a pair of plain wedding bands or choose to have
them studded with gems or diamonds. The choice of gold or silver wedding band
pairs could be made based on, personal preference or budgetary considerations.
Etchings in his and hers wedding bands are often used to add further meaning
to wedding rings. We will discuss these and other issues in the following
paragraphs. The information is interesting and straightforward, it is also
rare as, most jewelers would not bother to provide such detailed information.
Importance of design: The design of a wedding pair does more than
enhance the external appearance of the jewels. Ideally, the design effort
would include inputs from the production team, gemstone experts and fashion
advisors. Remember that the dimensions, gemstone or diamond mounting and overall
design structure of your gold or silver pair of wedding bands, influences not
only the beauty of the rings but also their longterm durability. Kaisilver
wedding bands and other jewelry designs are researched by a team of experts
before being released for buyers to choose. Unfortunately this is not how most
jewelers work, copying of designs and mass producing them is considered to be
much easier and more porfitable. This attitude does not keep buyer interests
in mind.
Proportion of dimensions and weight: A pair of light wedding bands
might be cheaper, buyers are often impressed by the 'delicate' and 'fine' work
of wedding bands that are made with small amounts of metal. The truth is that
your pair of wedding bands should be strong and sturdy to last a long time.
The foundation of a sturdy wedding band set would be a healthy metal weight.
This does not mean that the rings should appear thick and bulky. Good design
and good craftsmanship will ensure that the metal provides support from the
corners and insides that, do not affect the external appearance of the ring.
The band width and ring size of a wedding band pair are the two dimensions,
that will be relevant to assess metal weight requirement. Two rings with the
same band width but different ring sizes cannot be made with the same gold
weight. This would mean that the larger ring will have thinner metal thickness,
such a ring will bend and dent more easily. Since every wedding band pair from
Kaisilver is fully custom made, features like metal weight are calculated with
reference to ring dimensions in every single case. Lack of sufficient metal
weight might also force flimsy mounting and thin delicate prongs for mounting
gemstones and diamonds in a pair of wedding bands.
Choice of metal: It is important to understand the reasons and
effects, of choosing gold or silver for your wedding band pair. Not all buyers
prefer silver wedding bands just because silver is cheaper than gold. Sterling
silver jewelry has a fairly large following and buyers adore it's classic look.
Remember that the meaning of your wedding band pair does not increase if you
decide to have the rings made in gold. If you decide to shop for a pair of gold
wedding bands on a limited budget, you might have to settle for a pair of low
weight bands. The problems of compromising on metal weight have been discussed
in the above paragraph. In such a case, it is better to consider a pair of
sturdy and well crafted sterling silver wedding bands. Choose a design that
has a classic or antique theme, such a wedding band pair would look awesome
in sterling silver. You should know that all silver jewelry will tarnish,
however occassional cleaning will get rid of such tarnish. Do not fall for
gimmicks of 'anti tarnish' treatments for your silver wedding bands. All treatments
on silver will wear off after a while. If you choose a gold wedding band pair,
consider the fact that 14k gold is harder
than 18k gold. This does mean that a 14k wedding band set would be sturdier
than a similar set made in 18k gold. The choice between yellow or white gold
wedding band pairs, would be based on your personal likes and dislikes.
Good craftsmanship: A pair of well crafted wedding bands will
give you more benefits than just good looks. Sturdy mounting of gemstones and
diamonds, good finishing without sharp and jagged edges influence the overall
durability of your ring. Most jewelers offer good craftsmanship only for gold
wedding bands, there is no technical justification for this. The choice of a
gold or silver wedding band pair is your decision, you have a right to expect
good quality material and craftsmanship for both metal options. Most jewelers
work with a just a handful of craftsmen, this limits the skills and attention
that is put into making each wedding band set. Over 3,500 skilled craftsmen
and artisans work on all Kaisilver jewelry, this includes gemstone cutters,
casters, polishers, wax mould making specialists and expert gemstone and diamond
setters. You can therefore rest assured that your wedding band pair is in the
best hands no matter what design, metal or other options you choose.
Choosing diamonds and gems: It is possible to increase the beauty
and meaning of a wedding band pair by including gemstones or diamonds in the rings.
Mankind has believed in the properties and significance of gemstones for many
centuries. The most popular belief regarding gems is the concept of birthstones.
This explains the popularity of gold and silver wedding band pairs with
birthstones, the exchanging of birthstones in wedding rings has been a recent
trend. Remember that the gemstones in a pair of wedding bands might differ,
it is only the design concept that is retained for both rings. It is ofcourse
possible for the couple to include gemstones that match their color preference.
Diamonds can be expensive but it is possible to order a pair of diamond wedding
bands with diamonds of medium grade. Do not go for the junk diamonds that appear
cloudy and dull to the naked eye. But there is no need to over shoot your
budget with the best quality either. If you are considering a pair of yellow
or white gold wedding bands with gemstones or diamonds, make sure that the
mounting for the stones is firm. Loose gems or diamonds could fall off, this
can result in expensive repairs. It is quite possible that the stones in your
wedding band pair could have a value that exceeds the value of gold in your rings.
Personalization: This is one of the most important feature for
all special occassion rings. The highest degree of personalization can be
provided by a pair of custom wedding bands. True customization would mean that
you could choose the design, metal, gemstone and dimensions for your wedding
band pair. You might love a pair of matching bands with diamonds, but the price
tag could be beyond your budget. A good idea would be to replace the diamond
with a genuine natural white zircon, this would allow you to retain the design
element but considerably lower the price tag. A pair of matching sapphire
wedding bands might become more affordable if, the gemstones were replaced
with deep blue topaz or blue spinel. However, do not expect a jeweler working
with readymade wedding bands to do these things for you. You will need to
work with a reputed custom jeweler who has full access to all production
facilities, including gemstone sourcing, gemstone cutting, mould making and
skilled craftsmen. Make sure that you get complete customization of a pair of
gold or sterling silver wedding bands.
You should know that the above features are necessary to get a pair of good
looking and long lasting wedding bands. With a little bit of patience and
planning, you can get wedding bands that meet your expectations and include
all your preferences. A wedding is a very special occassion, work with a
jeweler who understands this. It is impossible to get a good price, good
merchandise and good service from a jeweler who only worries about his
profit margin. Evaluate your jeweler and become of aware of the resources
that he has at his disposal. Do this even before glancing through his
wedding band collection. Most buyers rush to order their wedding band pair
in the last moment, emphasis is given only to external appearance and prices.
Jewelers are aware of this and reap the benefits of such hasty decisions.
There are some very important reasons for wearing a pair of matching wedding bands. Firstly, they help strengthen the feeling of togetherness that is so very essential in married life. A pair of silver or gold wedding bands that are etched with names or intials of the couple help, create a feeling of closeness, this is possible even when the couple is infact geographically wide apart. Exchanging birthstones in matching wedding bands has the same effect and is a popular option among members of the armed forces. Armed forces personnel are often called to be away from home for long durations and under difficult and dangerous conditions. Every couple attaches a special meaning to their wedding bands, these are jewels with a value that far exceeds the metal or stones that go into making them. In many cases wedding bands are heavily cared for and protected, this allows them to be passed on from generation to generation.

understanding what to look for when buying your wedding bands. If the knowledge
leads you to another vendor, we will gracefully accept your decision.

will work together and let you know of what is possible. Your queries could be
design, gemstone, gold, silver or even tradition related. Our teams consist of
experts from every field related to gemstones, jewelry, fashion and even religion
and tradition researchers. We urge you to take advantage of our expertise before
ordering your wedding band pair.
We prefer payments through Paypal, you can register for a free paypal account
at

Our email for paypal is info@kaisilver.com and we are
International Verified Premium Account holders of paypal. We accept Bank
Transfers on a selective basis and generally provide this mode of payment to
repeat buyers. You can let us know if you prefer to pay for your wedding band
pair through a Bank Transfers. While we do accept Western Union Money Transfers,
we do not recommend it for first time buyers. With no easy system to track
Western Union Transfers, most first time buyers are worried about frauds. It is
a huge waste of time for us and loss of peace of mind for the buyer, to
understand and explain such situations. If you still prefer to use Western Union
Money Transfers, let us know and we will provide you with the required details.
Shipment would normally be done within 4 to 5 weeks of order confirmation and
receipt of payment. This is a required time since every jewel is fully custom
built, every gemstone handpicked and custom cut. This requires a huge amount of
skilled craftsmanship, something that cannot be hurried. If you need your jewel
within a shorter period of time, let us know and we will try to confirm an
earlier shipment date. In any case, speeded production will not be done by
compromising on quality. We ship through FEDEX and will provide you with the
tracking number the moment the parcel is ready to ship.

If you walked into a jewelery shop and picked a wedding band pair, you will
basically be limited to the stingy options provided by the jeweler. This might
be okay for a casual wear jewel but, not very suitable for a pair of wedding
bands. A wedding is an important personal affair, your wedding bands should
reflect a personality and taste that is your very own. It is a true that a made
to order pair of wedding bands would allow you maximum flexibility, permitting
individual expression. Such a pair of wedding bands would be a bit more expensive
than choosing from a small collection of readymade wedding bands. But the
advantages of getting something that you really liked and being allowed, to
fully express your feelings and sentiments adds tremendous value.
One of the ways to personalize your wedding band pair is to choose some etching
on the inside or outside of the bands. For a pair of plain wedding bands, it
would be fine to do an etching on the outside of the band. This is also possible
where a single alphabet needs to be etched on the outside of a diamond or
gemstone wedding band pair. It is also common for plain wedding bands to be
etched with religious or other symbols. A wedding band pair can be etched with
much longer words or numbers inside the band. Wedding or engagement dates, a
short message, or even names are some suggestions for wedding band etchings.
A pair of gold wedding bands could be ordered in white or yellow gold. It is
also possible to have a pair of two tone wedding bands. Such rings would combine
yellow gold and white gold in the same ring. As a general idea, select custom
wedding band pairs with two tone gold only for plain bands that have no gemstone
or diamond studdings. This ofcourse is just a suggestion and your own preference
should over rule all recommendations. When talking about yellow or white gold
wedding bands remember that, both types of gold have similar physical properties
like hardness.
One very important issue regarding wedding band pairs is often overlooked
by buyers. This relates to the timing of the purchase of your wedding rings.
Provide sufficient time to have a good look and evaluate options. Do not restrict
yourself to a narrow choice of readymade offerings. Jewelry shops are often
aware that buyers come to purchase wedding bands in the very last moment. They
therefore suggest expensive options or wedding bands that are not of high quality.
The idea is to push good looking bands that, lack the basic features to ensure
longterm durability. A pair of made to order wedding bands will be tailor made
to your requirements and budget, this might involve a few weeks of time, but
the results will be more rewarding.
