titanium ringI think if I ever (am allowed to) get married I’ll want a wedding ring like this. This particular one is titanium inlayed with Jarrah, a tree from Australia. I’ve seen these in all varieties of wood, and I imagine if you have a particular type of tree with special meaning to you, you can find a ring with it. They’re simple, but at the same time the wood gives them a unique, complex beauty that you can’d find in a plain band.
