General Information on Satin or Brushed Finished Engagement Rings
A satin finished engagement ring has a soft finish that is a contrast to the more normal highly polished effect. We find that this type of finish can be combined with a modern design to give contrast.
This finish will wear to the lovely dull shine of the natural metal. The rate at which the finish will wear varies enormously between people. Some people find that it wears in only a matter or months while others find that it can take a few years - the wearing happens as a result of the engagement ring making contact with other harder objects during everyday life, objects such as steering wheels, dog leads etc etc. It is hard to predict the level of wear a finish will suffer - see care for your engagement ring for more information.
The good news is that a satin finish is very easy to reapply and we (or any other reputable jeweller) can certainly do this for you.
We tend to think that part of the beauty of an engagement ring is the way in which it wears with your everyday life so our opinion is, don't be too worried by this wear as its part of the way in which your engagement ring will change with you as you go through your life.
Choosing a satin finish is a great choice for your engagement ring although you do need to be prepared to reapply the finish from time to time.
