WHY IS KOA WOOD SO SPECIAL?
Koa is widely considered the finest wood in the world, with unmatched depth, color, and grain texture. Because Koa only grows in Hawaii and many local laws are in place to protect it, its wood can only be harvested from fallen trees on public lands. Its name in the Hawaiian language, Koa, also means brave, bold, fearless, or warrior.
THE ADVANTAGES OF WOODED RINGS
How often has someone asked you about your traditional wedding ring? I am going to bet almost never. While we take our time to carefully select our wedding rings or other rings we wear, they typically go unnoticed because they have the same metallic look as just about every other rings out there. A handcrafted wood ring is not only aesthetically unique, wooden rings have a number of advantages over traditional metal rings or silicone rings.
WOOD RINGS ARE LIGHTER
The tungsten metal ring which I had worn for years, started to feel heavy and cold and I eventually stopped wearing it. I then tried a silicone band, which warped and became loose and uncomfortable after only months of use. When I created my first wood ring, I was amazed at how light it was. It was like I was not wearing a ring at all. It has the durability of metal, with the comfortability of silicone.
WOOD RINGS HAVE CHARACTER
The slight differences in colorations and grain add up to a One of a Kind ring that is unique to you. Your wood ring will certainly get attention, and stand out from the crowd.
