When you're choosing the best material for a men's wedding band, it's not just about what looks good. Well, maybe it is. A little. But it's also about finding the material that speaks to you and tells your story for all to hear.

Steve P. contacted us at Rustic and Main one day, asking how we could help tell the story of his grandfather. Here is his story.

Jack Daniel and former slave Nearest Green formed a lifelong friendship and partnership in the tumultuous of times. Whiskey and craftsmanship brought them together. We're proud to share in their story!

August 4th is a day of commemoration for many as we celebrate Coast Guard Day. We're honored to have created a special wood ring which celebrates our guardians of the coast.

Wood wedding rings have a lot of great qualities, but they aren't the same as metal rings. Here are the things you should know before you purchase one.

Creating a weathered look for a wooden ring is pretty simple, and the result is very pleasing to the eyes.

I knew before I started Rustic and Main that I wanted to be part of this “American Made”, handcrafted movement. So, when the idea of creating wooden rings from historic and symbolic woods came about, I knew I wanted to do so as the bespoke craftsmen of old.
