While it is true that wood is not as hard as metal, it is also not as soft as most people think. With that said, wood rings can scratch easily if not cared for properly. Here are a few tips on how to keep your wood ring from getting scratched:

Are wood rings comfortable to wear?
Yes, wood rings are definitely comfortable to wear! I have several myself and never have any issues with them. I think it really depends on the style of the ring and how it fits your finger. Some designs may be a little more bulky or have sharper edges, which could potentially cause discomfort, but generally speaking, wood rings are quite comfortable.
Another thing to consider is the type of wood that the ring is made from. Some woods are softer than others and may feel more comfortable against the skin. Other woods are more dense and may take a little getting used to, but are still comfortable once you get used to them. Overall, I would say that wood rings are definitely comfortable to wear and make great statement pieces!
Can wood rings be resized?
While wood rings can technically be resized, it is not recommended. Wood is a very delicate material, and trying to resize a wood ring can often result in damage to the ring. Additionally, wood rings are often made with unique designs that cannot be recreated if the ring is damaged. If you need to resize a wood ring, it is best to take it to a professional jeweler who has experience working with this type of material.
