If you want the rings to sit flush, ask about a shaped or notched band that curves around the setting, or choose an engagement ring with a lower setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Metal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people match the metal of their engagement ring. Metals of different hardness rubbing together can wear the softer one faster over time, so ask your jeweller what they recommend for your pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Width and profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A band of similar width to your engagement ring usually looks balanced.<\/li>\n\n<li>A rounded inside edge (often called comfort fit) slides on more easily than a flat one.<\/li>\n\n<li>If you work with your hands a lot, a slimmer, lower band may be more comfortable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Timing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Made-to-order bands can take several weeks, so start looking a few months before the wedding and leave time for engraving or a final fitting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shape, metal and width all decide whether two rings look and feel right together.
