Online jeweller Titanium-Buzz.com has highlighted growing demand for carbon fibre pieces as one of the industry's biggest trends.

Carbon fibre has recently become popular in a whole range of industries looking to reduce use of metals in production.

But it appears that discerning jewellery buyers have also taken it to their hearts, with the composite used by jewellers to create a sleek and fast look.

Titanium-Buzz offers a range of products that aim to combine the modern lustre of carbon fibre with gold and other traditional precious metals.

The company has just launched a $399, 14-carat gold ring with a carbon fibre inlay, aimed at those "who dare to be different".

Also on offer is a Bullet Carbon Fibre ring, which derives its name from the punched holes in the composite material and can be injected with either a blue or red tint.

"Carbon Fibre has become a material in the jewellery world that will fuse two exotic materials together to create something that is as unique as the person who wears it," stated the company.

Titanium-Buzz.com offers a variety of jewellery made from non-traditional materials such as stainless steel, carbon fibre and titanium.
