Everyone seems to be talking about wedding rings recently. I cannot for the life of me figure out what the heck to buy Mr. Cream Puff for a wedding ring. Here’s a secret: I be po’. Like, really po’.
However, I really want Mr. Cream Puff to have a wonderful ring that he can have for all of eternity. I’m very sentimental–I’m not into the idea of ring “upgrades.” I want him to wear the same ring that we exchanged on our wedding day forever, you know?
When I saw Mokume Gane for the first time (on my cousin’s finger–hi Peter!), I immediately thought of Mr. Cream Puff, who is really outdoorsy and loves nature. Mokume Gane is a Japanese sword-making technique where different types of metal are folded together. It ends up loking like wood grain and is absolutely GORGEOUS. As I expected, Mr. Cream Puff really loves the look of Mokume Gane… unfortunately, I can’t afford the price tag, which is usually $1500-$2000.
A few weeks ago a gal on the Knot told me about a website online where you can get titanium rings that look like Mokume Gane, but they don’t look quite like the real thing. Also, I’m not quite sure how I feel about titanium. Here’s the “Mokumanium”:

In my mind, Mr. Cream Puff is going to wear this ring for the rest of his life, and I don’t want to cheap out on him–even though I have no money at all. So I’m on a search for less expensive Mokume Gane with white gold. Any ideas?
