A plain wedding band takes the form of a ring in pure gold, without ornamentation. It embodies timeless elegance and everyday comfort. Our Shunya models, available in 2mm and 3mm widths, offer a refined simplicity that transcends the decades.
A set wedding band features natural stones (diamonds, sapphires, emeralds or rubies) arranged around all or part of the ring. Our half-eternity bands and statement wedding bands add a precious dimension to this symbol of commitment, with a sparkle that accompanies every gesture.
The choice depends on your aesthetic sensibility and lifestyle: the plain band is often favoured for its discretion and durability, while the set band appeals for its brilliance and bold character.
The width of a wedding band influences both its comfort and its visual presence on the finger. At Mayuri Paris, we offer several widths to suit every hand shape:
Beyond aesthetics, consider the comfort fit: our wedding bands are shaped by hand with particular attention paid to the inside of the ring, slightly domed for comfortable wear day and night.
Absolutely. Many couples wish to create visual harmony between their wedding bands while respecting each person's preferences.
At Mayuri Paris, several approaches are possible:
Our bespoke service, available via bonjour@mayuri.fr, also allows you to create coordinated wedding bands with personalised details such as a shared engraving or specific finishes.
The wedding band and the engagement ring are meant to be worn together, often on the same hand. Their harmony deserves particular attention.
Matching by metal: if your engagement ring is in white gold, a white gold wedding band will create a natural continuity. However, mixing golds (white, yellow, rose) can create a very elegant effect if you enjoy layering tones.
Matching by profile: a fine, plain wedding band (2mm) sits harmoniously against most engagement rings. For solitaires with a high setting, check that both rings can touch without forcing.
The bespoke wedding band: we can design a wedding band whose curve fits perfectly against your engagement ring. Contact us at bonjour@mayuri.fr with a photo of your ring to explore the options.
Yes, the wedding band is specifically designed for permanent, everyday wear. Our 18k gold (750/1000) wedding bands combine the beauty of pure gold with the durability needed for everyday activities.

Yes, engraving is a service we offer to personalise your wedding band and make it truly unique.
The most common engravings include:
Engraving is done on the inside of the ring so it remains invisible and preserves the outer appearance of the wedding band. To discuss your engraving project, the fonts available and check feasibility depending on the chosen model, contact our team at bonjour@mayuri.fr.
Plan for this service in advance: an engraved wedding band requires a production time of 3 to 6 weeks.
Knowing your ring size precisely is essential for the comfort of a wedding band worn for life.

Measuring your size:

For a wedding band, choose a slightly more comfortable size than for an engagement ring: it will be worn permanently, day and night, and your fingers may swell slightly depending on the season or activity.

The questions we are asked most often about gold wedding bands: materials, care, symbolism and styling advice.
The gold wedding band traces its roots back to Ancient Rome, where the gold ring already symbolised eternal commitment. The choice of the circle, a shape with neither beginning nor end, represents infinity and the continuity of love. Gold, a noble and everlasting metal, embodies the purity and durability of the marital bond.
In Western tradition, the wedding band has been worn on the left ring finger since the Middle Ages, as it was believed that a vein ran directly from this finger to the heart. Today, wearing a solid gold wedding band perpetuates this universal symbol of union, while affirming a timeless and personal aesthetic choice.
18k gold (750/1000) offers the best balance of purity, beauty and resistance for a band worn every day. Composed of 75% pure gold and 25% noble alloys, it retains gold's warm shine while gaining strength.
Unlike 24k gold, too soft for daily wear, or 9k and 14k gold, which are less precious, 18k gold guarantees exceptional durability against everyday knocks and scratches. It is the standard favoured by traditional French jewellery-making, a guarantee of quality and longevity for a piece as symbolic as a wedding band.
The colour of gold depends on the precious metals added during alloying. Yellow gold, the most classic, keeps gold's natural hue and suits warm skin tones. White gold, alloyed with palladium or silver, gives an elegant silvery appearance, often enhanced with a rhodium plating for lasting shine. Rose gold, tinted with copper, gives off a romantic softness that is highly sought after.
At Mayuri Paris, our 18k gold wedding bands are available in all three shades, allowing you to match your bands to your personal taste, skin tone and other jewellery. Each shade retains the same quality and the same intrinsic value.
A comfort-fit profile refers to a band whose inner surface is slightly curved, unlike a classic flat profile. This ergonomic design naturally follows the shape of the finger, reducing pressure points and providing optimal comfort every day.
For a band worn day and night, the comfort-fit profile is particularly appreciated: it makes it easier to slide over the knuckle and provides an immediate feeling of ease. Our gold wedding band collections, notably the plain Shunya bands and the Mars collection for men, incorporate this attention to comfort to ensure a pleasant fit over time.
A solid 18k gold wedding band withstands water perfectly and can be worn in the shower or at the pool. Gold is a noble metal, unalterable and non-oxidising, unaffected by either fresh or salt water.
That said, a few precautions will help preserve your band's shine: pool chlorine and chemical products (harsh soaps, detergents) can slightly dull rhodium-plated white gold or encourage the build-up of residue. For bands set with diamonds or gemstones, it is best to remove your jewellery before intense physical activity to avoid impacts that could loosen the settings.
On the contrary, solid gold retains its intrinsic value over time, as it is a precious metal traded on financial markets. An 18k gold wedding band does not deteriorate: it keeps its composition and its weight in pure gold, whatever its age.
Mayuri Paris gold wedding bands are crafted in our workshops using metals sourced from ethical supply chains, over 80% of which is recycled. This sustainable dimension strengthens their sentimental and heirloom value. Choosing a gold wedding band means choosing a piece that spans generations, one that can be passed down as a cherished family heirloom.
The width of the band should be proportionate to the shape of the finger for a harmonious visual balance. For slender hands and tapered fingers, a band of 2 to 3 mm brings elegance and discretion, like our plain Shunya bands.
Hands with wider or longer fingers can carry more substantial bands, from 3 to 5 mm or more, which give structure to the hand's silhouette. The Mars collection, available up to size 70, offers widths designed for men's proportions. The key is to prioritise your comfort and personal feel when trying it on.
Yes, a solid gold wedding band can be resized after purchase. As gold is a malleable metal, a ring can be made larger or smaller by a few sizes, depending on its thickness and whether it is set with stones.
At Mayuri Paris, we offer all sizes from 47 to 58 for women and from 52 to 70 for men, with the option to produce any size on request. Resizing is provided free of charge within one month of receiving the piece, once only, provided it has not been worn or engraved. After this period, a quote is issued on request. A free PDF ring sizer is available on our website to precisely measure your finger. Should you have any doubts, our customer service team (bonjour@mayuri.fr) is on hand to help ensure a perfect fit from your very first order.
A full-eternity band is set with gemstones all the way around, symbolising an unbroken, eternal love. A half-eternity band features stones on only half or three-quarters of the ring, leaving the inner part plain.
Half-eternity bands offer several practical advantages: greater everyday comfort, the possibility of engraving the inside, and easier resizing should your finger size change. Our gold set wedding bands include half-eternity styles adorned with diamonds, black diamonds, sapphires, emeralds or natural rubies, combining symbolism with practicality for comfortable daily wear.
At Mayuri Paris, responsible sourcing lies at the heart of our approach. Our gold wedding bands are crafted using metals sourced from ethical supply chains, with over 80% coming from recycled gold. This approach reduces the environmental impact linked to mining while guaranteeing the same 18k gold quality.
Our small-scale or RJC-certified (Responsible Jewellery Council) workshops adhere to strict standards regarding working conditions and traceability. The natural gemstones (diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, rubies) that adorn certain bands are selected according to responsible sourcing criteria. Each wedding band comes with a certificate of authenticity on request.
A solid gold wedding band offers unmatched durability and nobility for a wedding piece worn every day. Unlike silver, which oxidises and tarnishes on contact with air, 18k gold is unalterable and keeps its natural shine without any special treatment.
Vermeil, made of silver coated with a thin layer of gold, offers an accessible alternative but is unsuited to a wedding band: daily wear eventually reveals the silver underneath. For a symbol of everlasting commitment, solid gold or platinum remain the reference materials. Our wedding bands embody a lasting sentimental and heirloom investment, worthy of the promise they seal.
On a set wedding band, diamonds or gemstones are held in place using various artisanal techniques. Pavé (grain) setting, very common, embeds each stone within a small polished grain of metal, creating an elegant and secure paved effect. Channel setting aligns the stones within a continuous channel of metal, offering protection and a modern look.
Each technique is chosen according to the design and the size of the stones. Our jewellery artisans work by hand to ensure the strength and evenness of the setting. Mayuri Paris set wedding bands combine 18k gold with quality natural gemstones (diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, rubies), for lasting shine and worry-free everyday wear.
