Introducing TIMOKU Mens Rings from Edward Mirell

We just received our first TIMOKU rings last week from Edward Mirell and they are amazing! These are some of the coolest mens titanium rings I've ever seen. It seems Edward Mirell gets surprising us with their innovative and creative mens titanium jewelry. Basically in a nutshell you'd describe the rings as black titanium rings, made in a mokume gane fashion. You see different layers of material and it's just so cool!

Here's the description we have on the TIMOKU section of our website, www.Titanium-Jewelry.com. "Grey and black titanium folded together using ancient Japanese sword making techniques. With TIMOKU there is strong emotional meaning. it symbolizes the joining of souls and the blending of personalities. At the same time it preserves the individuality of each of the partners. The joining of materials, like the banding of a tree (moku), significantly increses the strength of the individuals."

Each ring will have a very slightly different pattern to it - they are individually made, so that's to be expected. The texture of the rings is a little rougher than a typical mens ring, but it feels like you are wearing a natural organic material on your finger.

I hope Edward Mirell eventually comes out with more designs in this collection. The rings we have would make great mens wedding bands. As I mentioned there is NOTHING like this anywhere, so if you want to stand out then you need a TIMOKU ring.

You can view the collection of the TIMOKU rings here.

Hello Ron. I agree with you. Titanium mokume rings are very appealing... and your store is one of the few places on the web carrying "Timoku" rings.

Excellent!

Hello Ron,

I just ordered my Timoku ring and am very excited to receive it. I saw the stock titanium rings that you had and now I am looking forward to receiving this new type of jewelry. Timoku looks so nice with it's melind of titanium + black titanium through the art of mokume gane.

I will post again when I receive my new ring.
