Diamonds for men’s wedding bands?

The answer is a resounding, yes! Diamond wedding bands for men are trending and for good reason. Ranking 10 on the Mohs scale of hardness, diamonds are renowned for their durability. They are also highly symbolic gems that add glamour and bling to an otherwise plain wedding ring.

If your fiancé wants a diamond in his band, he may already be familiar with the famous GIA 4Cs of diamond quality from shopping for your engagement ring. So knowing about diamond color, cut, clarity and carat weight and how these influence value will help you both find the perfect ring in an ocean of diamond wedding bands.

You can opt for a single, bezel set diamond for maximum durability. Or, if sparkle is the objective, consider adding diamond melee to the wedding band. Melee diamonds can be as small as 0.001 ct (1/1000 of a carat). These tiny diamonds are typically either single cut (round, with 17 or 18 facets) or full cut (round brilliant, with 57 or 58 facets). In men’s wedding bands, they are often channel set or bead set into the band so they are flush with the surface of the metal.

Here’s another reason to consider melee: Many tiny diamonds are usually more affordable than a single stone of the same weight. So, you can get a lot of sparkle for the money. If you’re considering a band with melee, you’ll definitely want to read Melee Diamonds: Tiny Diamonds, Big Impact.
