Traditionally, wedding rings were fashioned out of 22ct gold and often held the familiar and comfortable “court” profile. Court wedding rings are straight all the way around the band on the top and bottom, but are slightly rounded on the inside and outside of the ring making them a perfectly wearable and comfortable fit, whatever width of band you choose.
Although court designs are still relatively popular when it comes to designing your own wedding rings, couples today have a much greater choice of materials, profiles, widths, and finishes.
