Choosing a material for an engagement ring depends on several factors: durability, appearance, allergies, lifestyle and, of course, budget. Here are the main material options:

Gold:
The traditional choice. Available in different shades: yellow gold, white gold, and rose gold. White gold looks more modern, but requires regular maintenance (rhodium plating). Yellow gold is a classic option, while rose gold has become popular due to its unique color.

Platinum:
A very strong and durable metal, it is often chosen for rings as it does not tarnish over time. It is also hypoallergenic, making it ideal for people with sensitive skin. However, platinum is more expensive than gold.

Palladium:
An alternative to platinum, but lighter and less expensive. It also does not cause allergies and does not tarnish. It is less common but is gaining popularity.

Silver:
An affordable option, but less durable compared to gold or platinum. It is more prone to scratching and tarnishing and requires regular cleaning.

Titanium:
A very lightweight and strong metal that is scratch resistant. Titanium is also hypoallergenic, but is difficult to resize after purchase.

Tantalum and tungsten:
These metals have become popular because of their extraordinary strength and resistance to damage. However, they are difficult to resize or polish.

If you want a durable ring for an active lifestyle, platinum or titanium are great options. If a classic look is important, gold is the way to go.
