    High polish finished rings are the most common finish on rings and jewelry. This type of finish is very shiny and reflective. You should be able to clearly see your reflection in the ring. For those who like their ring to be noticed, this finish is an excellent option. The drawback to this style is that scratches are easily noticed on high polished finish rings.


  • Satin Finish:

    Satin finished rings are smooth to the touch like like polished finish rings. However, you will not be able to see your reflection on the surface of the ring. It is kind of like a mirror that is fogged up. For example, a bathroom mirror after you take a shower. This type of finish is best for those who like the smoothness of a polished finish ring, but do not want the shininess of that finish.


  • Brushed Finish:

    A brushed finish is similar to a satin finish. Both, the satin finish and the brush finish are not shiny. The difference is that a brushed finish has a texture to it. It looks as if the texture was made with a wire brush. You can see tiny brush-like marks on the finish , hence the name brushed finish. This type of finish is very popular on men's brushed finish tungsten wedding bands because it is not shiny and if the ring gets scratched, it will not show up easily on the ring's surface.


  • Sandblast:
