Engagement Rings

Engagement rings symbolize one of the most memorable highlights of your life. The tradition of exchanging wedding bands is meant to illustrate lifelong love.

Since 1904, Steadman’s Fine Jewelry has designed and created thousands of unique affordable engagement rings in Salt Lake City, UT. From your grandparents, to your parents, to you, Steadman’s has experience like no other in Utah, over four generations worth. We focuses on creating quality affordable engagement rings to fit all needs, desires, and budgets. Concentrating only on the diamond when searching for engagement rings is like building a home without a solid foundation. Even though diamonds are the focal point of diamond engagement rings, the band is the base that holds the ring together and is just as essential. What style of metal fits your future fiancé? Classic metals like gold, platinum, or silver? Or will it be something more contemporary and unique like tungsten and titanium? Maybe even something ultra creative like hardwood? Each metal has advantages for affordability, looks, and durability so to help you choose that unique affordable engagement ring that your future wife dreams of, take a look and explore your options.

Yellow Gold

Gold in its purest form is a soft, malleable metal. This is why yellow gold engagement rings are traditionally mixed with other metals like copper or zinc. Because of its natural warming color and shine, gold has been the standard when it comes to engagement rings. Yellow gold also looks nice on all skin tones and compliments a variety of diamonds. It is a versatile metal and will go with any other jewelry your fiancé currently wears on a regular basis. Gold engagement rings for women are a classic choice.

White Gold

White gold is pure gold combined with other alloys like silver or nickel. With similar coloring as platinum, white gold engagement rings are more affordable and have become more popular in recent times. If you are looking for something affordable and popular, white gold engagement rings are a timeless metal and a perfect choice for your fiancé to be. The shine of gold will compliment the diamond it holds beautifully.

Rose Gold

Due to its warm, reddish hue, rose gold jewelry has a unique and romantic feel. Rose gold engagement rings have been increasingly popular in the last few years. One of the variations of gold, rose gold engagement rings offers a classical style with a unique twist. Just like white gold, rose gold engagement rings are surprisingly affordable and compliments all skin tones. If your future fiancé is more fashion forward and trendy, finding affordable rose gold engagement rings are an excellent choice, and Steadman’s can help you find the right affordable rose gold engagement ring for your perfect bride to be.

Platinum

Platinum has been one of the most commonly used metals for wedding and engagement rings. Platinum is denser than most metals, so more of it is required to make engagement rings. This means almost all platinum engagement rings will contain 95% pure platinum, making this material more expensive. Platinum will always stay white (which means little to no cleaning) and is very durable so if you have the budget, you stop by Steadman’s, we have a great variety of platinum engagement rings for women.

Silver

Sterling silver is another very affordable precious metal. Its coloring ranges from grayish white to a full bright white and can have either a shiny finish or matte finish. There are many choices for silver engagement rings, which makes this metal very versatile in style. The two main types of silver engagement rings are sterling and argentum. Sterling engagement rings are hypoallergenic and are perfect for those with allergic reactions to certain metals. Argentum engagement rings are durable and tarnish resistance. Silver is perfect for those who break things easily. Just a reminder, silver engagement rings tend to tarnish so when you store it, place it in a cool, dry place to keep its shine.

Titanium

A naturally gray and silver material, titanium has the malleability to be altered into serval colors, such as black, to give it a more unique take. Titanium is a very resilient metal. It is resistant to cracking, bending, and has strong scratch resistance. Because of its strength, titanium engagement rings for men allows more delicate stone setting than your traditional, softer jewelry precious metals like gold. Titanium engagement rings are hypoallergenic, lightweight, and resistant to popular conditions such as salt water and chlorine which make it a perfect fit for those who spend a lot of time outdoors. Just keep in mind that although not impossible, it is difficult to resize and may take a little more time when doing so, so if shopping or interested in titanium engagement rings for me, take this into consideration and make sure it fits perfectly before you buy it.

Tungsten

Similar color to titanium, tungsten has a silver and gray sheen. It is a metal-ceramic that has a high hardness rating.  But it is brittle – if tungsten is hit hard enough, it will shatter. Tungsten engagement rings are very scratch resistant and are heavier than most metal rings because of its density. One of the best advantages to tungsten engagement rings is that it can be permanently polished. Your tungsten band will look just as new as the first day you wear it and will never need to be re-polished for as long as you have the ring. Tungsten engagement rings are desirable for those that do physically intense work or hobbies that require them to use their hands because the ring is durable and will look new even after much wear and tear. If you’re looking for tungsten engagement rings in Salt Lake City, Steadman’s has great and unique options to fit your need.

Wood

A natural, earth grown material, wood is a trending alternative to the traditional metals. Wooden engagement rings are perfect for the eco-friendly couple. Wooden engagement rings are also inexpensive and intricate designs can be easily crafted with high quality if you are looking for low-budget engagement rings. Hardwoods like ash, hickory, oak, cherry, and maple are the best woods to use for wooden engagement rings. Special care instructions will depend on the type of wood you are using. Be sure to have a new finish applied as needed to protect the wood and ensure your wooden engagement ring is looking as new as the day you bought it. A wooden engagement ring makes a statement not just about your commitment to your finance but a bold commit to the environment as well.

Beyond amazing customer service! I needed to get the clasp on my gold bracelet fixed same day, I took it in they repaired it on the spot and did it free of charge as it wasn't a huge fix. This was so unnecessary but oh so lovely and very touching. Just wanted to share my appreciation and mention how lucky Lane Cove is to have a lovely local jeweller! Highly recommend - I will be back! and maybe for the beautiful pearls I saw in the display....

Love the Stedman's shop in Lane Cove! They have solved every question that I had and help me revive some pieces of jewelry that I was not longer using by giving them a second life. Amazing attention and great eye for details! Worth recommending and definitely will go back!
