I think that most people don’t realize that the majority of wedding bands – and engagement rings available are actually made by machines, rather than actually people. For those that want a more personal touch, something like handmade rings might be worth looking into – just as an alternative to the store bought rings that everyone else is so highly esteemed. Having someone actually hand create a ring or another piece of artwear actually not only increases the value of the piece in terms of dollars and cents, but it also increases the value to the wearer, because you know that it was made with more love and care than a thousand rings that were made with a machine.
Purchasing something that is actually considered to be artisan handcrafted jewelry will change your mind forever about the value of gold and silver that is pressed and molded by a machine in comparison to the gold and silver than is hand molded and formed to look exactly how you imagined it to look.
These types of intricate processes can take longer and produce more expensive pieces of jewelry, but with this purchase you get the satisfaction of know that your artist paid extreme attention to detail, and that they would not sell you a piece of jewelry that could be considered to be subpar or weaker than other pieces. Handmade jewelry is for people who want to remember moments in time for the rest of their lives.
