It's a tradition to give rings as a gift when you want to express your love. But, which ring will suit the occasion best? The four main types are: promise rings. eternity rings. engagement rings. and wedding rings.
Promise rings offer a great option for couples who don't want to commit to a formal engagement. The promise ring states: "We don't plan to get married now, but someday soon."
A promise ring is an excellent gift to give at any given time. The style of a promise is up to you. It can be anything that makes you happy and shows your love. A promise ring may be worn on any finger and it is not necessary to get on one's knee to give one to your partner. You don't have to spend the same money on the promise ring that you would on the wedding or engagement ring.
These are the rings that people give to someone when they ask them for their hand in a marriage. This ring type is worn in the third finger of left hand as there is said to be a vein running directly from this finger into the heart. This vein does actually not exist. The tradition, however, is still alive.
Engagement rings have been given since ancient Egypt, when the Egyptians chose a circle-shaped ring to represent eternity. What should your ring look and cost?
As styles changed over the years an engagement is now a white or platinum band with a set diamond. Diamond Rocks offer a custom-made service that lets you design your ideal engagement ring. Click here to get started!
