Plain Wedding Rings By Si Vis Amari

Plain wedding rings are the most popular choice for a reason. Nothing competes with a beautifully finished band in platinum 950 or 18ct gold, shaped to sit comfortably on your finger for decades. At Si Vis Amari, every plain wedding band is made to order in the UK, with your choice of profile, width, depth, and metal. Use the configurator below to build yours.

Six Profiles, One Perfect Fit

The profile of a wedding ring describes its cross-section, the shape you feel when you run your finger across the band. It is the single biggest factor in how a plain wedding band feels on your hand, and it is worth getting right.

Slight Court is our most popular profile. The inside is gently curved for comfort while the outside sits almost flat. It gives you a classic, understated look without the sharp edges of a truly flat band. If you are unsure which profile to choose, this is the safest starting point.

Flat Court combines a completely flat exterior with a curved interior. The result is a modern, architectural feel that sits flush against the skin. It is a popular choice for wider bands where comfort becomes more important.

D Shape is the traditional British wedding ring profile. The outside is fully rounded while the inside is flat. It has a classic domed appearance that catches light beautifully, though it can feel slightly less comfortable than court profiles on wider widths.

Court Profile is curved on both the inside and outside, making it the most comfortable option available. The double curve means it slides on and off easily and never digs into adjacent fingers. If comfort is your priority, this is the one.

Edged Flat Court takes the flat court profile and adds defined bevelled edges along both sides. It creates a contemporary, angular look that works particularly well in platinum and white gold.

Edged Slight Court is the same concept applied to the slight court shape. You get the comfort of a curved interior with the refined detail of bevelled edges. It sits somewhere between classic and contemporary, and suits people who want a plain band with just a touch of design interest.

Choosing the Right Width

Width changes everything about how a plain wedding ring looks and feels. We offer widths from 2mm to 8mm, with half-millimetre increments available on request. As a general guide, 2mm to 3mm gives a delicate, understated band that pairs well with most engagement rings. Widths of 4mm to 5mm are the most versatile middle ground, popular with both men and women. Anything from 6mm to 8mm makes a bold statement and is the most popular range for men’s plain wedding bands.

If you are choosing a wedding ring to sit alongside an engagement ring, width matters for proportion. A band that is too wide can overpower a delicate setting, while one that is too narrow may look lost next to a larger stone. We are always happy to advise on pairings during a consultation.

Platinum, Yellow Gold, White Gold, and Rose Gold

Every plain wedding ring we make is crafted in either platinum 950 or 18ct gold, and every ring carries a full UK hallmark from the Birmingham Assay Office as your guarantee of precious metal quality.

Platinum 950 is the densest and most durable precious metal used in jewellery. It develops a soft patina over time that many people prefer to a high polish. Platinum wedding rings are naturally hypoallergenic and will never fade or change colour. They are heavier than gold, which gives them a reassuring weight on the finger.

18ct Yellow Gold is the classic choice. The warm tone has been the standard for wedding rings for centuries, and 18ct gives you a richer colour than 9ct without being as soft as 22ct or 24ct. It pairs beautifully with all skin tones.

18ct White Gold has a cool, silvery appearance similar to platinum but at a lower weight and price point. White gold wedding bands are rhodium plated for a bright finish, though this plating does wear over time and can be reapplied during a routine service.

18ct Rose Gold has a distinctive warm, blush tone that has become increasingly popular. The pink hue comes from the copper content in the alloy. Rose gold wedding rings pair particularly well with solitaire engagement rings in matching rose gold or in mixed metal combinations with platinum.

Light and Medium Depth

Depth refers to the thickness of the band from top to bottom. A light depth wedding ring has a slimmer cross-section, making it lighter on the finger and more affordable because less metal is used. A medium depth band is thicker and heavier, which many people prefer for the sense of substance it gives. Neither is better than the other. It comes down to personal preference, and the configurator above lets you compare prices instantly between the two.

Patterns and Engraving

A plain wedding band does not have to stay plain. We offer a selection of hand-finished patterns that add texture and visual interest to any profile. These are applied by our craftsmen during the finishing process and include options like brushed, hammered, satin, and milgrain detailing. Patterns are available for an additional cost and can be previewed in the configurator above. If you have something specific in mind that is not listed, let us know through the special requests box or get in touch directly.

Finding Your Ring Size

Getting the right size is essential, especially with a plain wedding ring where there is no stone to act as a visual distraction from a poor fit. We use the standard UK letter sizing system. If you already know your size, select it in the configurator. If you need a quarter size (for example, M and a quarter or N and three quarters), use the fractional size selector next to the main size dropdown.

If you are not sure of your size, we offer a free sizing service at both our Didsbury studio and Manchester city centre location. We always recommend being sized in person rather than relying on home measurement kits, particularly for wider bands where the fit can feel tighter than expected.

Handcrafted in the UK

Every wedding ring we sell is made to order by specialist manufacturers in the UK. Nothing is imported, nothing is mass produced, and nothing leaves our hands without a full inspection. From the moment you place your order, your ring is crafted to your exact specification: your profile, your width, your depth, your metal, your size. Typical turnaround is two to three weeks, though we can accommodate rush orders when needed.
