Q: My fiancée and I are looking for rings, and I want something unique without being tacky. Is this a bad idea?
A: To me, if it isn’t rather plain, it isn’t a wedding band, at least for a man. I wear a plain gold band. But some people are not gold people. I see no reason why you couldn’t wear a plain band made of another upscale element. Silver isn’t suitable because it tarnishes, and symbolically and practically that’s not good. Platinum and white gold are quite nice, too, for those favoring a more lunar, less sunny ring. Aside from the perfectly plain band, I’ve seen ones made of woven strands that are classic looking, too.
