Questions about buying a wedding ring
Wedding rings are a product that requires a lot of advice. Questions about material, ring size, stone setting and much more must be clarified before the purchase. This is why you can only order your rings from local Fischer Jewelry partners, who will accompany you with their advice on the way to your dream rings. You can find a Fischer Jewelry partner near you here.
Fischer does not sell directly at the company site in Pforzheim either.

Questions about the price
Due to various factors such as ring size, alloy, number of diamonds, stone quality and the current daily gold price, it is difficult to calculate all-inclusive prices. The Fischer jewelry partners can give you a daily updated price on site that takes all your individual adjustments into account.
Our tip: In our wedding ring configurator - the Konfischerator - you can design the rings of your dreams yourself and the price is displayed directly at each configuration step.
Fischer white gold contains 15% palladium instead of the nickel commonly used in the industry.
Palladium is significantly more valuable than nickel and does not cause metal allergies –
which makes it more expensive, but also more durable and skin-friendly.
In addition, white gold is rhodium-plated, which requires an additional manufacturing step.
White gold also requires an additional work step, as it is rhodium-plated at the end.
Questions about ring size
You can have the ring size measured by your Fischer Jewelry partner.
Our tip: Have your ring size measured several times to allow for natural fluctuations. You can find more information on determining your ring size here.
Most Fischer Trauringe be resized at a later date.
Exceptions are rings made of FischerCarbon®, the Elise model, and rings with many
diamonds around the circumference—these materials or settings do not allow for subsequent
resizing, but rather require a replacement. If in doubt, your jeweler partner will inquire with us.
Questions about production and material
Fischer Trauringe 100% made in Germany and are produced at our location in Pforzheim. This allows us to manufacture rings flexibly and reliably in the shortest possible time with the highest quality.
Fischer processes 100% recycled precious metals – no new precious metals are mined.
Compared to freshly mined gold, processing recycled metals reduces CO₂ emissions by up to 99%. Our Pforzheim factory also uses a photovoltaic system that covers an average of 90% of its annual electricity needs.
Diamonds weighing 0.3 carats or more in Fischer rings come with a GIA certificate.
All diamonds used comply with the Kimberley Process—the international
certification system against the trade in conflict diamonds. Fischer sources only Kimberley-compliant diamonds.
Platinum and white gold look similar, but differ significantly in terms of properties and price. Platinum 600 or platinum 950 is more robust and heavier than gold, naturally white and does not require rhodium plating. It remains permanently silver-white without any maintenance. White gold is a gold alloy that is made white by adding substances such as palladium (15% at Fischer) and requires re-plating with rhodium after a few years. Platinum is particularly suitable for couples who prefer a maintenance-free ring.
The numbers on the inside of your wedding ring are the fineness markings and indicate how much precious metal the alloy contains. 750 stands for 18-carat gold: 750 out of 1,000 parts are pure gold. 585 stands for 14-carat (58.5% gold). 950 means 95% platinum or palladium. The higher the number, the more precious metal is contained and the more valuable the material is. In addition to the fineness mark, all Fischer Trauringe the FS hallmark, our in-house seal of quality. For wedding rings, we recommend at least 585 gold, which ensures a good balance of value, hardness, and price. Rings in 375 (9 karat) are less suitable for everyday wear.
Yes, you will receive a certificate of authenticity from Fischer for each ring. This certificate contains all the information about the number of stones, stone quality and alloy.
You will also receive a GIA certificate for rings with diamonds weighing 0.3 ct. or more.
Questions about the design
Yes, the models shown are only examples. For each item, the item description contains a reference to the colors and alloys in which the model is still available.
No, the bride and groom can wear completely different rings. There is no rule that stipulates the same alloy, width, or collection. A very popular combination at Fischer is a women's ring in white gold or platinum and a men's ring in yellow gold or FischerCarbon. Other couples deliberately coordinate their rings and choose the same alloy for a harmonious look. At Fischer, many collections offer matching women's and men's models that work well together even in different alloys. Or design your rings individually in the configurator, where small details such as a joint or a diamond in the ring band can bring different designs together.
You can, of course, adapt existing designs to suit your requirements. The Konfischerator offers you endless possibilities to design your rings to suit your individual taste. Try it out for yourself and then, together with a Fischer jeweler, turn your dream rings into reality!
Definitely yes! The best example of this is the FischerCarbon® Bergmassiv ring. This unique piece was designed by a bridal couple themselves and has since been the inspiration for many other unique mountain rings.
After receiving the rings
When a ring is lost, it is often not only the material value that hurts, but also the emotional value. If you have lost your ring, please contact your jeweler. Thanks to its extensive database, Fischer can replace your rings even years after purchase.
Your ring is exposed to a lot of wear and tear in everyday life, which is why changes to the surface are normal. Polished surfaces, for example, become duller over time and duller surfaces appear polished over time. This can also result in the color of the ring appearing slightly different.
Allow your ring to collect "traces of life" and do not obliterate them immediately. Real damage is a different matter. In this case, it is best to contact your jeweler, who will take care of the refurbishment for you.
Soap and water are sufficient to care for your rings; from time to time you can also visit a jeweler for professional cleaning. You should never clean your rings with corrosive liquids.
Fischer Trauringe extremely robust. But one thing is clear: hard knocks, carrying heavy loads, or wearing several rings at once are not good for your jewelry. Please treat it with care.
Every Fischer ring is hallmarked (embossed) with the ring's fineness. The additional FS hallmark serves as a seal of quality and guarantees the authenticity of your ring.
You will also receive a certificate for each ring, which contains information on the number of stones, stone quality, etc.
