Wood Jewelry - What Are the 2 Most Durable Woods?

 

If you are looking to buy wood jewelry, and are mainly looking at rings, you should very carefully select the wood you use to get the ring crafted. There is a type of timber that is much more durable than other, and if you are purchasing a wooden ring, you want to make sure the wood is going to last as long while you want to keep it. By doing a research, you will find various DIY tips and steps on how to make a wood ring. Many people are right now using wood rings for wedding rings. Some due to the environmental reasons to using timber jewelry and some, simply because they like the look the wood offers.

 

There are two types of solid wood that I recommend you use whenever purchasing a wood ring. However, I would like to mention that the thing is always to research the environmental practice of the individual you are purchasing from. They must be able to ensure they bought the lumber from a trustworthy source. Now, back to the particular wood, it is Satine Rubane and Ebony.

 

Satine Rubane: This wood is found in typically the Brazil forests. Satine Rubane is very durable and is the vibrant red color that has a precious metal luster, red and yellow-colored stripes. It has a very high organic polish that completes the pretty perfect package.

 

Ebony: This can be a beautiful wood to use for wood jewelry. It is indigenous to southern India as well as Sri Lanka and is low growing, thrives in these dried and intermediate seasons. This particular medium sized evergreen has hefty and black real wood. This wood is so weighty, in fact, that it sinks in water. Ebony also polishes very well and for all these outlined reasons, it is an excellent wooden to use for wood jewelry.

 

Other than woods: 

Metals: Another item to think about is mixing metals using the wood. Many times, ring's craftsmen will use a metal with the wood to make it stronger and much more durable. In my experience, you will find this particular generally with white gold or even silver. This is another variance to consider and something that can provide the ring a little more personality.
