The flat profile of this 4mm band creates a clean, solid bar of gold on your finger. It’s less about sparkle and more about a strong, unbroken line of light that moves with you, reflecting the world in a warm, distorted streak.
This is a solid gold band, 4mm wide from edge to edge. Its top surface is completely flat, which gives it those clean, straight-edged reflections you see in the picture. The sides are straight, and the inside has a comfortable, slight curve. It's polished to a mirror finish, so it catches the light in long, bright lines rather than little sparkles. There are no stones, no engravings—just a pure, simple shape.
We make this ring from solid 14k gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold, with the rest being a mix of alloys that make it strong enough for a lifetime of wear. This means it has the deep, warm colour of real gold, but it won't easily bend or scratch from daily knocks. Because it’s solid gold through and through, the colour will never rub off or fade over time. It’s just a solid, dependable piece of metal that's meant to be worn.

You'd choose this band for its straightforward, modern feel. The 4mm width is substantial enough to have a real presence on its own, but it’s flat and low-profile enough to sit comfortably next to an engagement ring. It's a solid, practical choice that doesn't need any fuss.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the flat profile on this 4mm gold wedding band show scratches easily?
Yes, the polished flat surface of this 4mm gold band will show small scratches and scuffs over time, creating a unique patina. This is normal for any polished gold ring you wear daily. We can always re-polish it for you down the road to bring back its original mirror finish.
Can I wear my 14k gold wedding band in the shower or while swimming?
Yes, you can wear your 14k gold wedding band in the shower. Water won't harm it, but soap scum can dull the shine over time. We'd recommend taking it off before swimming in chlorinated pools or the ocean, as harsh chemicals can react with the alloys in the gold.
How should a 4mm wedding band fit on my finger?
A 4mm wedding band should feel snug enough that it won't fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle with a little effort. Because it's a medium-width band, it covers more skin, so you might need to go up a quarter or half size from what you'd wear in a very thin ring.
What happens if my wedding band doesn't fit when it arrives?
If your wedding band doesn't fit, you can return it within 30 days for a different size or a full refund. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. The ring just needs to be in its original, unworn condition.
How long does free shipping for a wedding band take to the US?
Free shipping on qualifying orders to the US and Canada typically takes 5-15 business days to arrive after your ring is made. We offer free shipping on orders over $60 CAD to Canada/US and over $110 CAD to the UK/EU. You'll receive a tracking number once it ships.
