Review on πŸ’ 15mm Stainless Steel Classical Matte Black Brushed Ring by Jude Jewelers - Ideal Wedding Band by Chris Santos

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Heavy and strong: rings

I love this ring. This is a serious piece of metal and quite heavy. When an angry elevator door tries to avenge me, this ring will protect my finger from being crushed. It's a full 1/8 inch thick. The matte finish is very finely brushed, so I would describe it as almost satin. Beveled edges are glossy but not glossy. I'm curious how the black will hold up because I wear other steel rings and they are so scratched that they lose their luster. Just take a look. I ordered size 8 and it fits true to size. Addendum 2 months after purchase to add: The nice brushed look is gone after two weeks of daily wear. The finish looks shiny most of the time, but not shiny because it has a few little nicks by now. The color is preserved but there are some scratches on the beveled edges. I don't see it as a bad thing. it shows character and age and I'm fine with that. I like wearing it. (Note that this is for the steel version. Tungsten doesn't wear that way. I also wear a polished tungsten ring and it still looks matte after a few months of wearing as tungsten is much harder than steel. Matte look is important to you, go tungsten .)
