How to pick your Grooms perfect wedding ring...

At Fogal and Barnes we have a huge selection of men’s wedding rings. We can help you create your perfect hand finished and bespoke wedding ring and to suit any individual design and budget. 

Here is a short blog which illustrates some of the choices that you have. 

What is your budget?

The price is determined by the metal, the profile (shape), weight, width and finger size. 

The rings are manufactured in 9 ct and 18 ct Yellow, White and Rose gold or Platinum. 

As of the date of this blog, platinum is now the same price as 18 carat gold, which does make a platinum wedding band really great value, as platinum tends to be the more hard wearing of the metals. 

The prices range start at only £100 for a plain, light weight, 9ct yellow gold wedding ring, but will increase for a larger platinum ring. So setting your budget will enable our team to help you purchase exactly what you need and want. 

Which ring should you pick? 

Whilst you can purchase your wedding ring online, we do recommend that you see our one of team as this will ensure that your wedding ring feels comfortable and looks exactly how you imagined. 

You will be living with wedding band for life so it is important that you can pick a ring based on your individual choice of comfort, style and design.
