Engagement rings

Unique rings with history for the unique and sustainable marriage proposal

A engagement is one of the most beautiful promises that we can make another person: we want to marry each other and spend our lives together. This also includes the decision to sustainability and what could fit better than a sustainable engagement ring.

The partner presents the piece of jewelry as a gift while he makes the marriage proposal. What could be more suitable than a ring? After all, the closed circle stands for infinity because it has no beginning and no end - just like love. The application ring therefore serves as a symbol of the marriage promise, and thus as a romantic symbol of love. The person who carries him indicates that she is engaged.

Engagement rings were already spread in ancient Egypt: the partners gave themselves more than 4,000 years ago as a sign of connection. At that time, the jewelry consisted of papyrus, ivory or leather. In ancient Rome and in the early Middle Ages, things were less soulful. The rings made of iron either symbolized that a man claimed a woman or that the dowry was paid. From the 15th century, the custom developed to give away a golden engagement ring with stone.

In most western countries, traditionally only the woman wears a engagement ring, the man hands over it. But men are also allowed to have such a ring on their fingers - and they also do it, such as the singers Ed Sheeran and Michael Bublé. After all, women can also make an application to their loved one today. And with same -sex couples, it is widespread that both wear the symbolic promise on the finger.

Beautiful variety: the selection of engagement rings

Stylish engagement rings are designed in different ways, regardless of whether it is new or vintage rings. Depending on, they have a slightly different meaning - but of course they always have to be connected:

  • The classic rings for a marriage proposal are solitary rings. They are crowned by a single, sparkling and large diamonds in brilliant cut. The individual, precious gem is intended to show that the chosen one is unique. The design goes back to the New York Edel-Jewelier Tiffany & Co., which invented it in 1886.
  • TOI-ET-MOI rings contain two gemstones or a stone with a pearl. This combination stands for the loving couple who wants to connect.  The romantic name refers to this: Translated the French expression “Du and I”.  None other than Napoleon Bonaparte handed over the first of these rings to his Josephine in 1796.
  • Trilogy rings for engagement are characterized by three gemstones lying next to each other. Either they are the same size or a large stone is flanked by two smaller ones. They symbolize a certain time in the life of the couple: past, present and future. In doing so, they refer to the future life together. A trilogy ring adorned the hand of today's Duchess Meghan after her engagement with Prince Harry.
  • An entourage ring has a large, colorful sparkling gemstone in the middle. It has its special effect because it is surrounded by several small brilliant or diamonds. Therefore, the name comes: "Entourage" is French for circular. Both the later princess Diana and Kate Middleton, today the Princess of Wales, wore such a engagement ring.

Diamonds are the most popular stones in engagement rings. A 1-carat diamond then glitters on the ring. But it doesn't always have to be the classic! Other stones are just as beautiful and created for special moments. Engagement rings with sapphire embody unconditional loyalty. Its deep blue is typical of the gemstones, but they are also available in other colors.

Emerald engagement rings are noticeable due to their sparkling green. That is the color of hope - and so these rings symbolize a happy marriage. Of course there are also engagement rings without a stone.

Gold is particularly valued at engagement rings as the starting material. However, it depends on your taste. You can also use a silver, platinum or white gold engagement ring.

Which finger does the engagement ring belong on - and why?

A engagement ring glitters with us traditionally on the ring finger of the left hand. This custom goes back to an ancient idea - that of Vena Amoris, the love vein. The ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks believed that such a vein would lead directly to the heart from this finger. In this case, the wedding ring belongs to the ring finger of the right hand.

However, this is not a strict rule. After all, it is the other way around in countries like Italy and Switzerland: there the engagement ring sits on the fourth finger of the right hand.

What do I do with the engagement ring after the wedding?

The couple of wedding rings exchange at the wedding - but what happens to the engagement ring? You can continue to wear the beautiful jewelry, for example like this:

  • The engagement ring stays on the left ring finger, the wedding ring moves to the right hand.
  • Both rings sit together on the right ring finger. The engagement ring then changes to the pretense ring. This is how it is called because he is on his finger before the wedding ring.
  • The engagement ring can serve as a trailer of a chain and hang around the neck.
  • You can pass on the engagement ring within the family - like Prince William. He presented his mother Diana's engagement ring to his Kate.

Second-hand engagement rings are particularly romantic signs of love 

A vintage engagement ring is a stylish piece of jewelry that is trendy and that not everyone has.

  • The ring has a story: The old engagement ring has already been used as a sign of love. The former wearer certainly received him with great joy and wore proudly until the wedding. This is a very romantic and nice idea.
  • A used engagement ring is sustainable: In contrast to a new ring, no additional precious metals and gemstones have to be encouraged for him. This saves valuable resources and protects nature.
  • The jewelry is unique and timelessly beautiful: an ancient engagement ring is an individual individual with a timeless design. This allows you to underline your character even better. In addition, this jewelry is not short-lived fashion trends: they are classics and do not get out of fashion.
  • Vintage engagement rings are of high quality: the jewelry is made of fine materials such as real gold and diamonds, they captivate with high quality. However, the exclusive rings usually cost significantly less money.

How do I find the perfect vintage engagement ring?

You do not buy a engagement ring for yourself, but for your partner. It is particularly important that he hits the taste of the loved one. The jewelry that the beloved person already has: does she like white gold or prefer gold? Does she love blue sapphires or would she be happy about a classic diamond? A timeless vintage engagement ring is in any case a good choice because it is something very special and an imperishable one-off. 

It is important that the ring really fits your finger. You can find out how to determine the right ring size at our vintage rings.
