Stainless Steel Cubic Zirconia Band Ring

The piece

The band is made from stainless steel, a metal that resists rust and corrosion and holds a polish through daily wear. It has a flat outer surface with softly rounded edges, so it does not dig in when you close your hand. At about 15 grams, it feels solid without being bulky.

Cubic zirconia stones are set into recessed openings around the band, sitting level with the surface rather than standing proud of it. The finish is electroplated and available in a gold tone, a rose gold tone, or polished silver tone steel.

How to wear it

Wear it alone on the ring finger for a clean, considered look, or on the index finger if you want it seen. Match the finish to your watch or chain: silver with steel, gold tone with a gold chain and an open collar. It reads relaxed with a tee and denim and stays appropriate with a suit at a dinner or a wedding.

Choosing your size

The ring comes in US sizes 7, 8, 9 and 10, with inside diameters of about 0.69 in (17.4 mm), 0.72 in (18.2 mm), 0.75 in (19 mm) and 0.78 in (19.9 mm). If you know your ring size, order it; if you are between sizes, go up, since the band is flat and wide and wide bands tend to feel tighter. Buying as a gift and unsure, size 9 or 10 is the safer choice for most men's ring fingers.

Questions

Will it hold up to daily wear?

Stainless steel is a hard, corrosion-resistant metal, so the band handles everyday wear well. Take it off for gym sessions with weights and for heavy manual work to protect the finish and the stone settings.

How do I care for it?

Wipe it with a soft, dry cloth after wearing and keep it away from perfume, lotion and cleaning products. Store it separately so other pieces do not rub against the plating.

Is it a good gift?

Yes, the design is neutral enough for most men and it comes in three finishes and four sizes. If you are unsure of the size, size 9 or 10 is the more common fit for a men's ring finger.
