How do you make your titanium rings?
Cascadia fuses art and technology to individually craft each ring from a solid billet of titanium. Our titanium rings are not forged, cast, die-struck, nor made from tubing. Because your ring is sculpted from solid titanium, it has no seams, solders or welds. The unbroken circle of your wedding ring symbolizes the never-ending love you share with the one who has your heart.
All rings on this web site are made by us - we are not a reseller. We perform all the operations that go into crafting your custom titanium ring. Titanium defies traditional jewelry making techniques. Working titanium requires a solid understanding of its characteristics, custom tooling, skill and patience.
Your ring is made individually; it is not mass-produced via some automated process. We use sophisticated software and CNC machines to be sure, but each ring is made to order and finished by hand. Starting with a solid bar of titanium, computer-controlled turning and milling centers, driven by our proprietary parametric software, shape each ring to precise dimensions. We then intricately finish your ring by hand. Stones, textures, and color finishes are applied by hand. The final process is a multi-step, hand polish to your choice of luster: high polish, satin or matte.
True Comfort Fit
All our rings come with a true Comfort Fit interior contour. Be aware that many titanium rings on the market claim to be comfort fit, but just have a straight "pipe fit" interior with only the edges tapered and rounded off. When the ring interior is not fully rounded, more skin gets trapped inside the ring and it becomes harder to remove. It is also less tolerant of normal fluctuations in finger size.
Our rings have a fully curved interior - a true comfort fit. This interior contour is easier to get on and off, more tolerant of normal fluctuations in your finger size, and prevents your finger from pinching when making a fist or lifting heavy objects. On widths of 5mm or less, the Comfort Fit advantage is not as noticeable.
Ring Inlays
Inlaid rings are hand fitted with your choice of 18-karat Gold, Platinum 900, or Sterling Silver. Our inlays are not plated or thin surface effects; they are solid precious metal inlays seamlessly set as deep into the ring as the inlay is wide. Thus, you can be assured your ring will withstand a lifetime of wear and polishing.
Stone Set Rings
We set our stones in white gold bezels for a beautiful finished look. Some titanium jewelers simply glue the stone in place, which over time can fail. The stones in Cascadia titanium rings are secured mechanically for a reliable setting.
