Q&A
with Osnat Gad, Founder and CEO of OGI Ltd., Published Author
of Wedding Rings. Osnat Gad is the Founder
and CEO of OGI Ltd., and has over 27 years of experience in
the jewelry industry. Gad is also the published
author of Wedding Rings. Published by Stewart, Tabori
and Chang, the books tells the elaborate history of wedding bands
through the ages.
.. Are
there certain metals that you recommend for engagement rings
and wedding bands? At OGI we offer jewelry in white,
yellow and pink gold as well as platinum. It is personal
preference
for which metal color you choose. However
when deciding between white
metals I normally recommend platinum,
as it is the strongest metal that will stand the test
of time. .. ..Should we match our wedding bands? The purchase of wedding bands is often
the first important financial purchase a couple makes together. So it is important
that both understand the feelings of their future spouse.
I don’t believe it is necessary to get matching bands, but I think it is
a nice gesture to
choose the same metal for wedding bands. The wedding ring signifies a couple’s
commit-
ment to each other for the rest of their life, and I feel the same metal is the
unification of
the union.
