What is personalization on a ring?

It is has become common place with sites like Etsy and Ebay to come across the term personalized or custom ring but what exactly does it mean to have personalization on ring?

The two most common types of personalization on a ring are-

1. Engraving - Adding engraving of a special date, name or saying is one of the most common ways to personalize a ring.

2. Adding special stones like birthstones representing special months that have meaning to you.

Personalizing a ring is simply the act of adding something to it that has a special meaning to you, the person receiving the ring or both.

Everything on our site is personalized in some way and we have hundreds of personalizable rings, so be sure to take a look around for some examples.

How do you Personalize a ring?

There are three main ways to personalized a ring.
1. Adding engraving or stamp.
2. Adding names or symbols
3. Selecting specific gems
Ring Engraving
The most common way that rings are personalized is by adding engravings or stamps. This allows you to add just about anything to a ring. Engravings can be song lyrics, dates, or something like "I love you"
For Engraving ideas, we have two articles that can help-
Names and symbols
It doesn't get much more personal than a name but when you add symbols such as a heart or infinity symbol between two names it becomes that much more personal.
Gems or birthstones
Not only can certain colors of gem stones represent the birth months but in a promise ring they can represent special months such as anniversaries or the month when someone first met. Of course the main use of birthstones is to represent a child or loved one in mother's rings, the current trend is to use them to personalize promise rings and wedding rings.

How much does it cost to personalize a ring?

This is a really loaded question but I'll do my best to give you an honest answer.

To personalize a band ring in today's world will cost $5 - $10 for a ring that you already own and $15 and up if you buy a ring and have it personalized.

Personalized silver mother's rings will cost you anywhere between $30 - $150 depending on the seller.

Ok, now for the nitty gritty.

To buy a ring and have it personalized will vary a lot in cost depending on the materials of the ring.The truth is there are a lot of sellers (businesses) that charge crazy amounts just because they can and then there are sellers that offer stupid cheap prices because they offer inferior materials.

So for this we are going to give a more in depth list of baseline price ranges.

Personalized men's ring average cost by material.

Personalized men's rings

Stainless steel rings - $15 to $30
