Well, the traditional harder-than-gold precious metal would be platinum. I seem to recall seeing some titanium rings


I don't like gold (the yellow colour, I mean) and I was told that white gold was too soft for wedding rings, so the wife and I opted for platinum wedding rings, because I wanted something shinier (and heavier) than titanium.

Apparently, you can get Tungsten Carbide or Palladium rings these days, too.

I don't like the look of yellow gold on my hands, either. I do like the look of some of those tungsten rings, but it looks like it might be difficult metal to set stones in -- SWMBO's engagement ring has channel set sapphires beside the diamond, and it would be nice to have some sort of matching theme on my band.
