At first glance one might think this discussion is about the color of the mens ring - the color of the gold or silver or even the color of the precious stones. Wrong. This is about the color of the people wearing them.
Do men and women of color wear the same types of rings as white Anglo Saxons? Truth be told … I could not find a study or research on this subject so we might just have to draw some conclusions ourselves. I think what is more telling is less about the color one’s skin and more about socio-economic factors such as education, training, job types and geography. True, college students buy more mens wedding bands that in any other geographic sector in the country. The reason is quite obvious. College-age men and women are also in the age category where engagement and marriage are prevalent. And, a ring is symbol of that union - whether a tungsten ring or one of the more traditional styles on the market today.
We mentioned economic status - you will see far more “bling” in less educated, lower socio-economic backgrounds than in a more educated and financially stable environment. Bling costs little but has flair and eye-catching appeal, at least to some sectors.
With the better educated and more affluent consumer also comes the demand for a higher quality and more fashionable style with precious and semi-precious stones and inlays. One has only to step foot into a higher end Zale’s Jewelry store to see this phenomenon in action.
Color? Not as important. Money - drives the argument. Education - completes the case. If you can find some more accurate data please let this writer know. Thanks
