Black Zirconia rings with black engraving

Zirconium, which is often confused with the related metal titanium, is a refractive metal that is commonly used in industry, and more recently in jewelry.

Its natural color is similar to titanium, but after heat treatment, a black ceramic layer of zirconium oxide is naturally formed.

It has a soft, silky feel in its polished black state, similar to what a hand would feel when touching a ceramic mug.
The inner part of the rings is polished in this way with a comfortable (curved) fit, and then various textures are added to the outer side of the ring, which can be satined, polished, forged, or roughly sanded. Or your engraving.

This is an ideal material for people with skin allergies, because it is practically a pure element that does not contain irritants that may be present in some other jewelry materials. So it is similar to titanium and very light, but slightly heavier than titanium.

Black zirconium is extremely durable, it will not break down, it will not bend over time, as precious metals can do, and the surface is not a coating, but simply turning the material into an oxide layer of zirconium dioxide, which is part of the material itself, so it will never wear off or change color over time.

The black ceramic oxide layer is equivalent in hardness to sapphire, and is extremely scratch-resistant.

The color of zirconium is striking in its natural form, but black gives it a completely new character-from glossy crystal black to satin tones that reflect light with an almost translucent graphite effect.

Since the surface of black Zirconia is very hard (usually around 8 on the Mohs scale or the hardness of sapphire and ruby), if the ring comes into contact with a softer material such as precious metals, the softer metal will move to the surface of black Zirconia. This may resemble a scratch on the ring, but please don't panic! The transferred metal can usually be removed with a sponge, kitchen cleaner, and warm water.

Although the surface of the ring is extremely hard, it is a hard surface on top of a softer natural and durable material, so it is possible to damage the ring if it is worn in harsh conditions, such as in the garden, climbing or in the gym. where it may come into contact with metal bars, so be careful and, if in doubt, remove it. Following this advice will extend the life of your ring before it becomes necessary to restore it.
