Military Rings

Military Rings are one of the great pieces of jewelry that defines the heroes of our world. The rings can be custom made to show and reflect a career dedicated to the protection of a nation. When  a person wears these rings they are easily identifiable whether active or retired.

How Are Military Rings Made

First there are no two rings the same, unless they are for the same unit or division. Each ring is custom made to suit the soldier's requirements. Quite often they are designed by a loved on as a gift. They are made using

a dual process. This dual process involves a casting and text combination.

 A cast of each unit emblem is created by the company and a combination of these casts are used to create the sides of the ring. The sides of the military rings are often referred to as the shanks.

When the casts are processed then the text which can appear above or below the emblem is engraved. The text can be the name of the person or it can be special dates relevant to the soldier.

Who Wears Military Rings

Military Rings are worn by soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. They are worn as a symbol of pride in the branch that the individual serves with. For many it is the one ring that has great meaning and makes a perfect retirement gift.

How To Design A Military Ring

The best way to design a military ring is to get a sheet of paper and write down exactly what you want on the ring. Go to a jewelry store and have the finger sized for a wide band ring. These rings are wider than the normal wedding band, so make sure you remember this.
