When you start planning to get married the first step is buying an engagement ring. The engagement rings UK designs are ever-changing. A recent trend that has revolutionised the engagement ring game is the use of non-precious metals. Titanium is a popular engagement ring metal that UK couples are lapping up. Here is why you should also jump on the titanium bandwagon –
Price Tag
You do not have to worry about the price tag of your engagement ring if you buy titanium. Titanium rings are rather inexpensive. The price of titanium engagement rings UK designs can start from as low as £ 40 and will barely ever cross £100 margin. So, if you need to save money on your engagement ring then look for titanium rings.
Durable Metal
Just because titanium rings are affordable does not mean that the rings are shoddy. Titanium alloy used to create rings contains over 90% pure titanium. This means that the titanium rings are durable and scratch resistant. You can wear the ring on a regular basis without worrying about the ring getting damaged.
Lightweight
Though titanium engagement rings UK designs are durable, they are not hefty like cobalt and tungsten rings. Just like platinum and gold, titanium rings are incredibly light on the finger.
Different Colours
White and black are the colours in which you can find titanium rings. Titanium is a white metal, but with the help of a chemical coating, the metal can be found in a black variant as well. The variety of colours helps create a more extensive collection of titanium engagement rings UK designs.
Looks Classy
The white titanium rings look like platinum or palladium rings. Without a very close look, it is hard to tell the metals apart. The black titanium also looks exceptionally classy. Once you are married and have a wedding ring, you can wear the engagement ring as statement jewellery.
Variety of Design
The colours and finish of the rings can vary. Along with the texture of the metal, UK jewellers stock a large variety of titanium ring designs. From simple bands with a solitaire CZ diamond to two-tone rings in combination with yellow gold, you can check out a variety of designs.
Can Be Resized
Titanium rings can be resized, contrary to popular belief. Some jewellers might be able to both increase and decrease the ring size of your titanium ring. You might have to pay for the resizing services, but the option is readily available.
Hypoallergenic
Since titanium is mostly made using pure titanium, people with nickel allergy can wear titanium jewellery. Even though a small percentage of metals used to make the titanium alloy, nickel is not one of the metals. So, titanium rings are hypoallergenic.
Easy Maintenance
Since the rings are durable, not much care is needed. Coloured titanium rings do need to get their colour coating refreshed, but the white titanium does not need much pampering.
Bridal Ring Sets
Titanium has not only infiltrated the engagement ring market but has become relevant in the wedding ring market as well. You can buy bridal titanium ring sets which have two rings of different designs. Bridal ring sets make purchasing the rings affordable.
Consider the advantages of buying titanium rings before investing in engagement rings UK designs.

We bought a titanium ring for my husbands ring because it’s so budget friendly and it looks great.
Oh nice Amy.
I thought ours were titanium – husband just informed me they’re actually platinum, which I think is quite expensive? Was such a long time ago I’ve forgotten!
I think platinum is expensive.
I had absolutely no idea that titanium was even an option when it came to engagement rings! I learnt a lot from your post and I can definitely understand why people are choosing these rings.
Glad you have learnt something new 😊
It’s great to see so many alternatives these days. Not heard of titanium rings before but my Husband has a palladium wedding band which was a fraction of the cost of platinum.
Yes it is Amy. Thanks for reading.
I hadn’t thought of titanium but I can see why people are doing! Will definitely remember this
Oh great Jenni.
We got married a couple of years ago and I couldn’t believe the amount of choice there is nowadays! This looks like a great option x
So many options available now x
My husband has a tungsten wedding ring and it’s really nice! I didn’t know about titanium rings and these sound like a great option too. Weddings are so expensive and we thought we could always upgrade in the future! My ring has small diamonds but bought on eBay!!
Yea you can upgrade anytime. We upgraded ours a few years ago.
We bought our son a titanium ring for his 21st birthday and he loves it
Oh lovely.
Titanium rings are inexpensive and suitable for engagement rings.
I agree.
