The factors affecting how heavy a
ring is are as follows:
Heavy Weight Rings
These
rings are popular among men’s palladium
rings and suit large, wide fingers. With a chunky feel, they measure up to 2.1mm or more in thickness.
Medium Weight Rings
This is the most popular
ring weight level.
Rings of this type will be around 1.7mm thick. They let you balance
weight and slimness of width when pairing with a standard
engagement ring. Medium
weight rings can be bought for almost any
ring profile. Check the depth measurements to ensure that you are getting what you pay for.
Light Weight Rings
Also called low profile
rings, these generally have a 1.3mm
depth. They are the thinnest among
rings, which is good in two ways; first, a
platinum ring of this size would be affordable, and secondly, it is more comfortable to wear. Choosing this
weight level is a good way to offset costs from needing, say, a wider
men’s band.
