{"product_id":"womens-red-fire-opal-wedding-band-black-tungsten","title":"Galaxy Red Fire Opal Hammered Wedding Band in Black Tungsten Carbide (4mm)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis women's opal wedding band features a slim 4mm channel of crushed red fire opal set over starry night blue sandstone inlay, framed by hammered black tungsten carbide. The narrower profile makes it equally at home as a wedding band, a daily-wear stackable ring, or a promise ring — slim enough to layer with other rings, distinctive enough to wear alone. The hammered finish adds visible texture, and the black tungsten color is bonded into the metal itself, not plated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe inlay: red fire opal over starry night sandstone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center channel is hand-set in two layers. The base is starry night blue sandstone (also called goldstone) — a glittering deep-blue material flecked with copper crystals that catches light like a constellation. Layered over the top is crushed red fire opal in fragments that flash orange, pink, and red under different lighting angles. The combination reads cosmic and elemental — like fire flickering over a night sky. Each band's inlay is hand-arranged before the resin sets, so no two are identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a 4mm width works for women\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 4mm profile is intentionally slim — narrow enough to wear comfortably on smaller fingers and to stack with engagement rings or other bands, but wide enough to give the inlay real visual presence. Compare to a typical 6-8mm men's tungsten band, which would dominate the finger and feel heavy for daily wear. This slim profile makes the ring versatile: substantial enough to stand alone as a wedding band, slim enough to layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHammered black tungsten carbide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exterior is hammered black tungsten carbide with a brushed finish — not painted, plated, or coated. The black color is bonded into the tungsten alloy itself, which means it won't scratch off, fade, or wear down to silver underneath like cheaper black-coated rings do. The hammered facets across the band catch light from every angle, giving the ring visible texture and a rugged-but-feminine character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for daily wear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTungsten carbide is one of the hardest metals used in jewelry — about four times harder than titanium, five times harder than steel, and ten times harder than gold. This ring won't bend out of shape, won't scratch from typing, kitchen work, or daily handling, and won't lose its shape over time. For women who've gone through softer silver or gold rings that scratched and dented quickly, tungsten is a true everyday material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHypoallergenic and skin-safe\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTungsten carbide is naturally hypoallergenic. It won't turn your finger green, won't react with sweat or lotions, and is safe for sensitive skin. If you've had bad experiences with cheaper rings or plated bands that wore down over time, this is a true forever metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Comfort-fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExterior:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hammered and brushed black tungsten carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crushed red fire opal layered over starry night blue sandstone (goldstone)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hammered (not polished)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHypoallergenic:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e True to size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStacks with:\u003c\/strong\u003e Engagement rings, other 4mm or thinner bands, ring stacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSizing \u0026amp; care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis band runs true to size. Because tungsten carbide cannot be resized once cut, please order your correct size — we recommend getting professionally sized at a local jeweler before ordering if you're unsure. Tungsten requires no special care: just rinse with warm water and dry with a soft cloth. Avoid hammers and direct impacts (tungsten is hard but brittle, so it can crack under sharp force).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy women choose this ring\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a wedding band for women who want a ring that actually has personality — not a smooth gold or silver band that disappears on the finger.

The red fire opal in the center channel is real opal material — crushed fragments hand-set into a resin channel so the color stays vivid and the surface stays smooth. Each band's inlay is slightly different since no two stone arrangements are identical. Fire opal is known for its play-of-color: it flashes orange, pink, and red under different lighting angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is starry night sandstone?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarry night sandstone (also called goldstone) is a deep blue glass-like material flecked with copper crystals that sparkle like stars under light. The crystals create a galaxy-like effect that's been popular in jewelry for centuries. In this ring, the starry night sandstone forms the base layer of the inlay, with crushed red fire opal layered over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this slim enough to stack with my engagement ring?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. At 4mm wide, this band is designed to stack comfortably with an engagement ring or other slim bands. The hammered exterior and inlay give it visual texture without making it feel too heavy when layered. It works particularly well as a wedding band stacked beneath an engagement ring, or as part of a multi-ring stack on the same finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill tungsten turn my finger green?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Tungsten carbide is hypoallergenic and will not cause skin discoloration.

This same red fire opal and starry night sandstone design is also available in a wider 8mm men's wedding band — perfect as a couples set or his-and-hers wedding bands. The two rings share the same inlay design and hammered black tungsten exterior, just in proportional widths for each partner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between hammered and polished tungsten?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolished tungsten has a smooth, mirror-like surface. Hammered tungsten has visible facets across the band that catch light from different angles — giving the ring texture and a more rugged, handcrafted look. This ring is hammered and brushed, which means it has the faceted texture plus a softer matte finish (rather than high-gloss polish).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdetails class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003csummary\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this durable enough for daily wear?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Tungsten carbide is one of the most scratch-resistant metals used in jewelry — about four times harder than titanium and ten times harder than gold. It holds up to typing, kitchen work, daily handling, and the kinds of wear that scratch and dent softer metals like sterling silver or gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquamarise","offers":[{"title":"4","offer_id":52062104486199,"sku":"BOX #692-4","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4.5","offer_id":52062103765303,"sku":"BOX #692-4.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5","offer_id":52062104518967,"sku":"BOX #692-5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.5","offer_id":52062104617271,"sku":"BOX #692-5.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6","offer_id":52062104748343,"sku":"BOX #692-6","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5","offer_id":52062104813879,"sku":"BOX #692-6.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7","offer_id":52058633961783,"sku":"BOX #692-7","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5","offer_id":52058633994551,"sku":"BOX #692-7.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":52058634027319,"sku":"BOX #692-8","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5","offer_id":52058634060087,"sku":"BOX #692-8.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":52058634092855,"sku":"BOX #692-9","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5","offer_id":52058634125623,"sku":"BOX #692-9.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":52058634158391,"sku":"BOX #692-10","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5","offer_id":52058634191159,"sku":"BOX #692-10.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11","offer_id":52058634223927,"sku":"BOX #692-11","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5","offer_id":52058634256695,"sku":"BOX #692-11.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12","offer_id":52058634289463,"sku":"BOX #692-12","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5","offer_id":52058634322231,"sku":"BOX #692-12.5","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"13","offer_id":52058634354999,"sku":"BOX #692-13","price":155.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0537\/0586\/7444\/files\/redfireopalband4mm.jpg?v=1777319743","url":"https:\/\/aquamarise.com\/products\/womens-red-fire-opal-wedding-band-black-tungsten","provider":"Aquamarise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
