{"product_id":"mens-brushed-polished-groove-wedding-band-5mm-14k-gold","title":"Men's Brushed Wedding Band with Polished Groove – 5mm 14K Gold","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMen's Brushed Wedding Band with Polished Groove – 5mm 14K Gold\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brushed gold band with one bright line cut through it. The satin surface keeps your ring quiet and modern, and a single polished groove runs all the way around, catching light every time your hand moves. Five millimeters wide, comfort fit, solid 14K yellow, white or rose gold, milled from solid tube on my bench in Woodside, Queens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy a brushed band with a polished groove?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fully brushed band can look flat in photos and in person; a fully polished one shows every scratch. This design takes the best of both. The brushed finish is laid down in one direction around the ring, a soft satin that hides daily wear, and the polished groove gives it one sharp, mirror-bright detail. That contrast is what makes a plain band look designed. From across a room it reads as simple gold; up close the groove is what people notice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow wide and thick is it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour band is 5mm wide and about 1.6mm thick, with softly rounded edges and a comfort-fit interior that is gently domed and polished smooth, so it slides over the knuckle easily and has no hard inside edge. Five millimeters is the classic men's width: substantial enough to look like a real wedding band, slim enough for smaller hands, for men who have never worn a ring, and for anyone who works with his hands. It is solid 14K gold throughout, never hollow, never plated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy milled instead of cast?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour band starts as a solid tube of extruded 14K gold, metal that has already been compressed and worked, and I mill the profile and the groove out of it rather than pouring gold into a mold. That gives you dense metal with no casting porosity, so the groove comes out crisp and clean and the brushed finish lies evenly, with no tiny pits showing through later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the brushed finish wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brushed finish softens with wear, and the marks daily life adds blend into the satin lines instead of standing out. The polished groove sits recessed in the band, so it is protected from most knocks and stays bright. When you want the band back to new, send it to me and I will rebrush the surface and repolish the groove by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYellow, white or rose gold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYellow gold gives the brushed surface a soft, warm glow with the groove flashing bright inside it. White gold turns the band cool and clean, the most modern look. Rose gold warms the satin into a muted copper tone and pairs well with a rose or yellow engagement ring. All three are solid 14K and priced the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSame family, different width or finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant it wider?

Resizing is complimentary within 60 days of delivery, craftsmanship carries a lifetime warranty, and you have 14 days to return it if it is not right and has not been engraved.

I started in 2016 at a family wedding band workshop in Long Island City, and bands are still the heart of what I make. Your ring is milled from solid tube, then brushed and finished by hand after you order it, in my workshop in Woodside, Queens.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black Pearl of Queens","offers":[{"title":"8.5 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354983796874,"sku":"R4223-YG-085","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987434122,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8.5 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987466890,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354983895178,"sku":"R4223-YG-090","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987499658,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987532426,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354983993482,"sku":"R4223-YG-095","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987565194,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9.5 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987597962,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984091786,"sku":"R4223-YG-100","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987630730,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987663498,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984190090,"sku":"R4223-YG-105","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987696266,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10.5 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987729034,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984288394,"sku":"R4223-YG-110","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987761802,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987794570,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984386698,"sku":"R4223-YG-115","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987827338,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11.5 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987860106,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984485002,"sku":"R4223-YG-120","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987892874,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987925642,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984583306,"sku":"R4223-YG-125","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354987958410,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12.5 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354987991178,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 \/ 14K Yellow Gold","offer_id":50354984681610,"sku":"R4223-YG-130","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 \/ 14K White Gold","offer_id":50354988023946,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"13 \/ 14K Rose gold","offer_id":50354988056714,"sku":null,"price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/3866\/4842\/files\/mens-brushed-polished-groove-wedding-band-5mm-14k-yellow-gold.jpg?v=1791103208","url":"https:\/\/blackpearlofqueens.com\/products\/mens-brushed-polished-groove-wedding-band-5mm-14k-gold","provider":"Black Pearl of Queens INC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
