Koa wood (acacia koa) is found in Hawaii. The color can be highly variable, but tends to be medium golden or red/brown (similar to mahogany). The grain of koa wood is usually slightly interlocked, and sometimes wavy. Tungsten is a an extremely hard and dense metal. When combined with carbon alloy, it transforms into tungsten carbide. It is this durable tungsten carbide we use to craft our rings. As tungsten is so hard, so it is very difficult for a tungsten ring to get scratched (making it scratch resistant). Buffed to a brilliant luster, this 8.0 mm-wide style features an appealing wood grain inlay and polished stepped edges. The band features wide acacia wood, spanning almost the entire width of the ring. It is finished with a natural resin. Our rings are lead free.
