FAQ
Q: What is tungsten carbide and why is it good for rings?
A: Tungsten carbide is one of the hardest metals used in jewellery, rated 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. It's highly scratch-resistant, maintains its polish for years, hypoallergenic, and perfect for active lifestyles. Unlike softer metals, tungsten rings won't bend or lose their shape over time.
Q: Is the meteorite inlay real meteorite?
A: This ring features a meteorite-inspired silver-toned inlay with a crystalline texture that mimics the Widmanstätten pattern found in genuine meteorite. It provides the distinctive cosmic aesthetic without the maintenance requirements of authentic meteorite material.
Q: Will the wood inlay be damaged by water?
A: The wood inlay is sealed and protected within the tungsten carbide setting. However, we recommend removing the ring during swimming, showering, or water sports to preserve the wood's natural lustre and prevent prolonged moisture exposure.
Q: Can tungsten rings be resized?
A: Due to tungsten carbide's extreme hardness, these rings cannot be resized like traditional precious metal rings. Accurate sizing before purchase is essential. Visit our Mall of the South boutique for professional sizing assistance to ensure the perfect fit.
Q: Is this ring suitable as a wedding band?
A: Absolutely. Tungsten carbide wedding bands are increasingly popular for their durability, modern aesthetic, and affordability. The combination of wood and meteorite inlay makes this a distinctive choice that symbolises strength and natural beauty—perfect for marking life's most important commitment.
Q: How do I care for the wood and meteorite inlay?
A: Clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and prolonged water exposure. Remove during heavy physical activity. The tungsten requires minimal maintenance, while the natural wood benefits from occasional gentle cleaning to maintain its warm appearance.
Q: What if the ring doesn't fit or I change my mind?
A: Cassim & Co. stands behind every piece we sell. Contact our team to discuss exchange or return options. We recommend visiting our Johannesburg showroom to try on rings before purchase to ensure you're completely satisfied with the fit and style.
