      Good art makes really beautiful heirloom quality jewelry. That said, my wife and I got silver wedding bands at a street market in Mexico that were dirt cheap, and they’re very nice. I cherish the memory of buying them. Although we thought at the time that we would “upgrade” when we could afford it, there have always been way better things to spend money on. I figure for our tenth anniversary I might revisit the idea of something fancier.

      You do wear your wedding band every day, so just make sure it’s something you love!

          My wife and I found a local independent jeweler to make our wedding bands for us, went pretty simple with it.  I love my good art ring, but I tend to lean towards super minimal when it comes to a wedding ring.  I went with a plain single bevel ring and went platinum.  I've hammered my ring over the last 7 years but I never take it off and it's super comfortable

            Well shit.  I’ve managed to abstain from any interest in GAH due to not being a jewelry guy but now I really want a ring.  Goddammit.

              I didn't think I was a jewelry guy either, @Matt but I've been thrilled with my GAH model 28

                    That ring is sick @Joberwocky and it's bold i love it. I'm definitely thinking about GAH rings now! But likely one more subtle.

                        It's the large size one, which I may not have gone for if.i hadn't bought it used through here on the forum.  I love a lot of hisore repeating pattern designs or the more club ring styles like what LewisStonehouse has.  Mine is a LOT of ring, but I like it and would look to get another

                          I dig the size you have and would definitely rock it on a middle or pointer finger.

                                  I had planned to wear this on a pointer, but didn't take into account the crazy width of the ring meant I needed to size up basically 1.5 sizes.  Fits my right index perfectly, so can't complain too much.  I do love the skull/rosette ring, the "thanks for giving" ring just speaks to me  😠

                                    What are y'alls thoughts on choosing Good Art for wedding rings? My fiancée are tossing the idea around. We are on the lower side of money to spend but each of us saw a couple we liked. Has anyone here done this and if so which model did you choose?

                                    Totally unrelated to Good Art, but something I learned when picking my wedding band: try it first to see what colour suits you best. Before we went to the goldsmith I was 1000% certain that I would get a ring in white gold. Tried it and the colour looked absolutely terrible on me. So yellow gold it is.

                                    And I totally second what @sabergirl said about wearing the ring everyday

                                      I did reach out to them for an order but never heard back and wound up getting a great ring from another LA jeweler (Populent) through Etsy. I wanted a wide (6mm) and flat band for comfort; the domed profile I find uncomfortable doing certain things (clenching fingers or grabbing things) and I generally don't remove my ring (I will lose it!). So for me at least, a wide, flat band with some radiusing of the interior edges or a slightly convex interior is really a great design. I think GAH has those kinds of designs.

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        Right on, thank you all for the advice and pointers. I think we would likely go with  sterling silver rings, which is why our eyes turned to GAH. It is likely the company my fiancée and I will go with at this point. She is super into the designs and likes the small pieces of jewelry I have recently ordered from them, especially the rosette symbol we often see in their work.

                                        We listened to the Iron Cast episode with the guy from Good Art on the way back from Ocracoke, NC over the summer…and through his hilarity she started to understand the brand a bit more and began looking at their designs.
