Eternity Rings | All You Need to Know
Eternity rings symbolise everlasting love and commitment and traditionally commemorate a special anniversary.
Eternity rings have long marked occasions of love and life, such as the birth of a child, a wedding anniversary, or simply a gift to say 'I love you'. Eternity rings first emerged in Ancient Egypt. Pharohs were the first to use the circle, a shape with no beginning or end, as a symbol of eternity.
Do you know why engagement rings are worn on the fourth finger of the left hand? Because the Egyptians believed the vena amoris (vein of love) ran directly from the heart to the top of this finger.
Nowadays, however, there is no set finger to wear an eternity ring on, it's entirely the decision of the wearer. Throughout the years, eternity rings have been a favourite of movie stars and celebrities alike. Grace Kelly, Audrey Hepburn, Marliyn Monroe have all sported eternity rings. Prince Rainer III of Monaco proposed to Grace Kelly with a diamond and ruby eternity ring. Although rubies and sapphires are seen in eternity rings, diamonds are by far the most popular stone of choice.
