Wedding ring profile guide

When it comes to choosing a wedding ring, there is a lot more to think about than most people realise. Once your customer has an idea of the style, metal and size, something else they need to consider is which wedding ring shape will be the most comfortable for them.

What is a wedding ring shape?

The ring shape, more commonly known as ring profile, is the cross-section of a ring - so if you were to cut through the band the profile is the shape you would see.

At Betts Metal Sales, we offer a selection of ring profiles for each of the different types of rings.

Court

Known as ‘comfortable fit’, the court profile is the most traditional shape. Its curved surfaces give it a soft look, and make it comfortable to wear, no matter the width of the ring you opt for.

D Shape

The D shape is exactly what it sounds like as it is shaped like a D. The profile of a D shape is flat on the inside while the outside is curved. The edges of the ring are also rounded for a softer, more classical look.

Flat

Flat profile rings have flat edges on all sides of the ring and sit close to the finger as they are not as deep as other profiles.

Flat Court

When worn on the finger, a flat court appears a lot like a flat. However, the inside has a curved surface making it a lot more comfortable to wear. The flat court is a great choice for customers who are after a chunky, contemporary look but are not used to wearing rings.

Oval Court

Oval Court Wedding Rings exhibit ultimate comfort with classic elegance. The ring features a simple oval shape cross-section with a soft ellipse surface on the inside and outside of the ring.
