While traditions have been part of society for thousands of years, the past few years have seen a move in the direction of freedom of expression. In this short article, we offer a few innovative ways a woman can wear her engagement ring.
- On the right hand – Normally, an engagement ring would be worn on the third finger of the left hand, the same finger as the wedding ring; more and more women choose to wear their engagement ring on the right hand, if not all the time, in certain situations. Women don’t always agree to a public display of engagement or marriage status and relocating the engagement ring is a common occurrence. If you are looking for an emerald engagement rings Brisbane designer, search online for a leading custom jeweller who has all the solutions. You could alternate between the right and the left hand and see if anyone notices.
- Stacked with other rings – Many girls love to sandwich their engagement ring with two other rings; of course, if she is married, she would wear both engagement and wedding rings on the same finger, while other rings such as eternity can be used to build the stack. Ring stacking is a great way to add a splash of colour to your look and the more creative you are, the better. Put all of your rings on a table and start experimenting to find the perfect stack combos and if you are in need of a few extra rings (or any other piece of jewellery), talk to a custom jeweller who can work to your budget.
- Wearing the ring on a necklace – Many girls love to wear their engagement ring through a necklace; when doing things like gardening and cooking, it is so easy to slip off the ring and thread it through your necklace. Next time you are out and about or attending a party, you might notice a few girls with rings on their necklace, which is becoming more fashionable. Who hasn’t seen a Hollywood A-lister wearing a ring in a necklace in a movie?
- Inside a locket – While you won’t see many examples of this, some women have a special locket made and they can put their engagement ring in the locket, which is usually worn round the neck. You might already own a locket and your engagement ring might fit inside; otherwise, you can browse the online jewellery stores looking for something suitable. There are some antique lockets that were made in the 18th century, specifically to keep a lady’s diamond ring safe and they can be found at an antique dealer’s website.
- Reverse the front – Some girls prefer to turn their engagement ring so that the front is facing the palm of the hand, leaving just a gold band visible. Flipping an engagement ring is easy and fun, lots of women play with their engagement ring by turning it both ways, without really being aware they are doing it. You probably have a few friends who do this and now that you know about it, you will notice.
As you can see, there are quite a few ways that you can wear your engagement ring and if you are planning to get engaged anytime soon, why not talk to a custom jeweller, who can design and hand-craft the perfect engagement ring. Such a piece of jewellery should be unique, a one-off design created by a skilled jeweller and the cost is on a par with buying a ring off the shelf.
