Weddings on Female First
Why they are so important: The eternity ring is arguably the most profound jewellery piece out there. It doesn’t say ‘will you marry me?’ or ‘we’re married’ but ‘we are forever.’ It shows an undying token of devotion. What’s even better is that eternity rings are very personal to the couples themselves. It doesn’t have to have a black and white defined meaning but signifies never-ending love for a multitude of occasions.
When to buy them: Because eternity rings’ meanings can be unique to the couple, buying them can occur at various different stages in the relationship. Any momentous time in the couples’ lives is worth celebrating with an eternity ring, for example as a ‘push present’ for having a child together. Many anniversary rings are also in the style of eternity rings (a band of precious metal set with a continuous line of identically cut gemstones) so can be given after a year of marriage or milestone dates. They can simply be to say congratulations or as a surprise ‘you’re the one!’
Their significance: The eternity ring is marketed to be given at any wonderful and momentous moment in a couple’s lives so they’re hugely significant for different reasons depending on the couple. They’re arguably most beautiful when set with diamonds; diamonds themselves can act as a promise of eternal life together, thus magnify in meaning when crafted into a continuous eternal circle – the eternity ring. Perfect as a beloved heirloom, eternity rings possess a lot of personal meaning and sentimental value, as well as monetary value too.
