So don’t buy one. My girlfriend’s will be getting one of those rings made of tungsten. Have you seen them they look amazing. It’s simultaneously looks like something some elvish jewellery merchant made while at the same time looking like it made also activate the halo rings.
A diamond is just shiny.
Of course it’s important to discuss these things with your partner in advance. Whether or not they would be happy with a non-diamond ring depends very much on the person. But it might be worth advocating for them because they look really nice and they are quite expensive but they’re honestly more interesting than the diamond and ethically sourced. There’s no such thing as blood tungsten.
If your finger swells up inside a tungsten ring, EMT’s cannot cut through it with their normal tools. They have to use a high speed grinding tool. You or your loved one will not enjoy this procedure.
Did a jeweler tell you that so they could sell you something expensive? Tungsten runs are hard but brittle. They can be broken with a pair of vise grips, just like stone rings.
I wear a tungsten band. Always have to take it off before the gym or manual labor. I was told “in an emergency they can’t cut the ring so they may have to cut the finger”. It’s cool though, I barely use that one and I have like 9 others.

Worked at a jewelers for a while years ago. If that’s the vibe you’re going for I’d suggest a moss agate:

Don’t get tungsten rings.

Nah, I’ve never bought pricey jewelry. Just a thing I have seen several times online. That’s how you know it’s true.
Anyway, if that’s the case, good to know, thanks.
