1 6mm Engagement Ring With 2mm Wedding Band Show Me Pics – So much goes into the look and design of engagement rings and wedding bands that the width of the ring band is easily overlooked. But your engagement ring and wedding band are likely the only pieces of jewelry you wear. So these rings should not only look the way you want them to look, they should also be comfortable and suit your lifestyle so that you can wear them easily.
Once the ring is on your finger, even the smallest millimeter difference in the width of the ring band can be the deciding factor in whether or not the ring is a pleasure to wear. While trying on different ring band widths is always a recommended practice, you may have already found the ring band width you want, and we’ll help you do that.

Ring size is often confused with ring width. Ring size is the diameter of the ring and also reflects the size of the finger. (Check out our guide on how to find your ring size here). The width of the ring refers to the thickness of the band itself. Wedding and engagement bands range in width from 1.6 millimeters to 20 millimeters, with most women and men choosing between 1.6 millimeters and 8 millimeters.

The width you choose will always be a matter of preference related to personal factors, visual style and physical comfort, but there are some specific ring sizes for women and men.
An easy way to imagine what these shapes look like is to pull out a few nickels and pennies. A nickel is about 2 mm wide and a penny is about 1.5 mm wide. So if you play with some coins and hold them up to your finger, you can get an idea of how 1.5 millimeters to 10 millimeters or so will look on your finger.
While any metal can be used for a ring band, the width will help determine what will be the best choice for durability and longevity. We recommend that thin ring bands be made using stronger metals. Soft metals such as high purity gold can bend easily or become misaligned if the band is not thick enough. In the case of using a softer metal like gold, it would be wiser to caratize with 14k instead of 18k to get a stronger gold alloy. Check out our guide to learn more about how to choose the right metal for your ring.
In a side-by-side comparison, both wide and thin ring bands will have some definite advantages and disadvantages depending on personal preferences.

The wide band has a very modern and contemporary feel to it and works well with modern settings, such as bezels, as seen with our Hanem. Since they are more durable, they can be made from different metals. Also, unique design features like fingerprint or deep channel settings work better for wider bands, as seen with our Lilly and Lito bands.
The biggest thing with a wide band is that more metal means the band costs more before it even reaches the stone or setting. Also, a wider band usually means a larger ring size because the extra surface area makes it harder to fit comfortably over the leg and then sit around the finger. Larger sizes can also add to the cost and since there is more metal, these bands are difficult to resize.
Thinner bands offer the exact opposite of the cost landscape of wider bands, so they will be less expensive because less metal is used in the overall construction. Center stones and large side stones look more impressive in thinner bands, and thinner bands open up more design options, like the twist or rope bands seen in our channel, that would be impractical on a wider band. A thinner band will fit more tightly on the finger and be easier to resize.
But thinner bands will be less durable and strong, so they may show more effects of normal wear and tear. Thinner bands may also struggle with more elaborate settings or larger stones. The weight of large rocks can actually twist the thin band on your finger as you walk. And some design features on bands, such as channel settings or side stones, can be difficult to create with less space and surface area.

One of the main features of choosing your engagement ring is choosing the type of setting. Stone size and placement will help determine the appropriate thickness for the band to achieve specific design features and structural integrity.
Thin to medium width bands can accommodate all kinds of design features and settings. By their nature, wide bands tend to be more minimal in design. This is mostly because they are already a statement look in their own right, but also because the wider the band, the harder it is to manipulate for unique features.
One of the biggest concerns for the structural integrity of an engagement ring is the relationship between stone size and band width. A large stone will not only overwhelm a thin band, but will compromise the integrity of the setting and fit on the band. And a wide band on an engagement ring can detract from the center stone’s size and sparkle.
Once the width of your engagement ring is decided, a more traditional option is to have a wedding band of the same width. This can lead to a balanced set and a polished look. However, many modern designs are taking the approach of mixing band widths for a unique look with some added dimension. This has become very common for those who find the look of stacking rings appealing.

While it’s becoming increasingly common to mix and match band widths for engagement and wedding rings, one element that’s important is choosing a band that suits your fingers and hand. A perfect anatomical fit combines comfort with pleasant aesthetics. So, how do you choose the right width for your hand? Here are some ideas to keep in mind:
Men’s wedding bands vary greatly in the metal used, design details and especially the width of the band. In general, men’s bands are wider, ranging from 4 to 8 millimeters, reflecting the typical large finger and hand size of men.
However, there are many reasons for a man to choose a thin or wide band, and those reasons are similar to the considerations women take into account when choosing their band width. For example, men with thin fingers can choose smaller rings that better complement their hands. Also, the perfect fit and the weight of a wide band can prove to be very hindering in your day-to-day activities.
As with women’s engagement and wedding rings and men’s wedding rings, lifestyle and habits should be given the most attention. These are rings that are likely to be worn all the time and for many years to come. Busy lifestyles that put a lot of wear and tear on the ring may benefit from a more durable and robust width, while those expecting less wear and tear may be happier with a thinner width.

For the modern-day viewer, a narrow ring conveys a classic, timeless look. The tapered band gives the ring elegance, and adds a high polish without ornate design features to create a ring with an elegant, traditional style. A wider-than-average ring width makes a statement on its own and can be paired with bold textures and engravings, carvings or gems to add interesting contrast.
Ultimately, you want to choose a ring band width that is the right mix of your own comfort and style preferences. Remember that your happiness with the ring is most important and trying on different widths is always the best way to find what you like best.
