Tungsten Carbide is becoming a popular and sophisticated alternative for men’s wedding bands. A rare and exotic metal, Tungsten Carbide can be permanently polished with a shiny finish that lasts forever. This stylish and unusually strong metal is virtually indestructible and scratch resistant. Tungsten Carbide jewelry, especially rings, is noticeably heavier in weight and durability. But despite its resilience, it is still wise to remove the ring when engaging in heavy activities. The jewelry should be cleaned with a mild cleanser and soft cloth, and should be stored separately from other jewelry, particularly diamonds, which is the only thing that can actually scratch the metal.
