"What? You can't engravie it unless the width is 1.5mm or more, right?"
I'm sure some people thought so.
The engraving to put letters such as your initials and date is from 1.5 mm width,
However, since the size of the engraving used is different, the denomination engraving can be used on 1.0 mm width rings.
The size of the engraving to put characters such as initials and date is 0.6mm, but
the denomination stamp is 0.4 mm, which is one size smaller.
Of course, each character is punched onto the inner surface of the ring manually by a craftsman ✌
This stamp is small, so it's hard to see,
By looking at the stamp when shopping,
you can roughly know what kind of material is used.
By all means, please check your rings and accessories
to see what kind of engraving is applied.
