Men’s Wedding Rings Take On A Rose Gold Sheen
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010Men and rose gold? It might sound a bit effeminate but fashion trends they are a-changing and a number of men are choosing rose gold as the metal of choice for their wedding rings. Rose gold has a slight pink colour and one would have thought with a colour like that, it would automatically be thought to belong to the women’s side of fashion. However, that is not the case today as men step out and claim beautiful colours and metals for their own, without having to give up their masculinity.
What is rose gold really? All gold is usually mixed with other metals, usually silver, so it is stronger because pure gold can be a bit malleable. Well, rose gold is mixed with copper as well which is what gives it the reddish-pinkish hue. Many of the designers are quick to jump onto this bandwagon and use this metal in high end watches and wedding bands. Not to say that it is an entirely new trend. Rose gold was very much in vogue in the early part of the last century. Today, it’s made a very elegant comeback indeed
