Is titanium better than sterling silver?
That depends on certain criteria. Sterling Silver is more valuable, is a precious metal and titanium is not. Sterling Silver is also shiner than platinum and is actually the whitest metal there is. Sterling Silver is heavier than titanium but is weaker as it rates 4 on mohs scale. titanium rates about 6 on mohs scale for strengh and will last longer than silver but weighs half as much as steel so its the lightest in weight for a wedding ring. Sterling Silver tarnishes when exposed to body acids and oxygen but if worn daily it will not tarnish. Sterling Silver is easily attacked by chemicals such as chlorine in pools which will make it turn partially black which is Silver Sulfate but can be re-polished. Titanium makes more sense if you abuse your rings more violently in the elements so choosing is up to whether you like the color durability or weight of the rings.
