    hi to all! I would like to know if anyone out there has experience or
    knowledge of how well titanium or niobium wears.  I am interested in
    setting an anodized piece in a ring using a bezel setting and wonder
    if this is practical or does the oxide film wear off  with just a
    small amount of wear and tear.   I have only used titanium and
    niobium in earrings. 

    I  just love the chance to pick the brains of you wise and wonderful
    Orchidians! 

Brigid Ryder
