Crafted from solid tungsten carbide, this ring is highly scratch-resistant and built for durability. The polished gold surface reflects light smoothly, while the straight pipe-cut profile gives the band a distinctly modern feel, making it ideal as a contemporary wedding band or a refined everyday piece.

We stand behind the quality of every AKOA piece. All jewellery is covered by our 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, giving you confidence in your purchase.

Our tungsten carbide rings and premium stainless steel jewellery are designed for everyday wear and are carefully quality checked before dispatch. However, the warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, misuse, exposure to harsh chemicals, or damage resulting from impact.

To keep your jewellery looking its best, we recommend removing it before using harsh cleaning products and storing it in a dry place when not in use.

View our complete Terms & Conditions for our warranty here, or learn more about the AKOA story.

We offer nationwide delivery across South Africa, with free shipping on orders over R1,500.

Orders are typically processed within 1–2 business days and are shipped with trusted courier partners. Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive tracking information via email.

If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may return it within 14 days of delivery, provided it is unworn, in its original condition, and returned with all original packaging. Our goal is to make the returns process as simple and hassle-free as possible.

Rings

A well-fitted ring should feel secure, comfortable, and effortless to wear throughout the day. If you already own a ring that fits comfortably, measure its inside diameter and compare it to the chart below to determine your ideal size.

AKOA rings are sized using the standard US ring sizing system. For customers familiar with South African or UK letter sizing, we have included a conversion guide below for easy reference.

SA/UK SizeUS SizeDiameter (mm)
P½818.1
Q½8.518.5
R½918.9
S½9.519.4
T½1019.8
U½10.520.2
V½1120.6

Please note: Due to the exceptional hardness of tungsten carbide, tungsten rings cannot be resized once manufactured. To ensure you can shop with confidence, we offer one complimentary size exchange on all tungsten rings. If your ring does not fit, we will cover the shipping costs both ways for your first size exchange, subject to stock availability.

The is perfect. I love it. The communication before and after the purchase was wonderful. The engraving is just a bit smaller than I imagined but other than that, It looks great

Polished Domed Tungsten Band
This tungsten carbide ring is an absolute beast! I never take it off. It survives constant wear without a scratch. I constantly use it to open beer bottles and it still looks brand new. Tough and stylish. Best ring purchase ever.

Brushed Tungsten Band
I've never really liked wearing a wedding ring, until my wife gave me this one. I work a lot with my hands in general but I've worn my ring for 8 months without taking it off and there is such minimal wear. Work, gym, shower, sleep, everything; and it still looks brand new.

Gold Snake Chain (41+5 cm)
I purchased their Gold Snake Chain and after weeks of 24/7 wear, including at the gym, it still looks and feels amazing and brand new. The colour hasn’t faded at all. It’s also so comfortable that I often forget that I’m even wearing it. The texture is amazing!✨

5/5 stars. I am an active individual and play tennis almost everyday with this ring and it still looks as good as new after 6 months. Super comfortable and has a nice weight to it. Really good quality. Really nice gift to consider for someone who likes jewellery

Premium Materials, Made to Last

Quality starts with what a piece is made from. We select our materials for their feel, finish, durability and everyday wearability — so your jewellery doesn’t just look good when it’s new, but is made to be worn.

Tungsten Carbide Rings

Our rings are crafted from tungsten carbide, an exceptionally hard and dense material known for its substantial weight and excellent scratch resistance.

Unlike softer precious metals, tungsten holds its shape and polished finish exceptionally well over time. Its natural weight also gives it the solid, substantial feel that makes it particularly suited to men’s rings.

• Exceptionally hard and scratch resistant
• Substantial, weighty feel
• Maintains its shape and finish
• Resistant to tarnishing and corrosion
• Made for everyday wear

High-Grade Stainless Steel

Our chains and bracelets are crafted from high-grade stainless steel, chosen for its combination of durability, comfort and lasting appearance.

Stainless steel is naturally resistant to corrosion, tarnishing and everyday moisture, making it a practical choice for jewellery designed to be worn regularly. It is also lead-free and skin-friendly.

• Durable and hard-wearing
• Highly resistant to tarnishing and corrosion
• Water and moisture resistant
• Lead-free and skin-friendly
• Easy to care for

PVD Gold Finishes

Our gold-coloured pieces are finished using PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) rather than conventional electroplating.

During the PVD process, an extremely thin layer of material is bonded to the surface under vacuum. This creates a finish with better adhesion and wear resistance than traditional plating, helping the colour withstand everyday wear for longer.

It gives us the rich look of gold while retaining the strength and practicality of the material underneath.

Jewellery Made to Be Worn

We believe premium jewellery shouldn’t need to spend its life in a box.

Our materials are chosen to create pieces that feel substantial, look refined and fit naturally into everyday life — whether you’re wearing them to work, out for dinner or every day in between.

6-Month Warranty

Our jewellery is made to be worn and enjoyed, and we stand behind the quality of every AKOA piece.

All AKOA jewellery includes a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects, giving you extra peace of mind with your purchase.

If you believe there is a manufacturing fault with your piece, simply get in touch with us and we’ll assess it and help make it right.

The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, misuse, loss, or damage caused by improper care.

For full details, view our full Terms & Conditions.
