Wedding Band Platinum Diamond Eternity Ring 1960s Estate Jewelry

Engagement rings and wedding bands have been around for centuries, symbolizing love, commitment, and partnership. The tradition of giving a ring to signify engagement dates back to ancient Rome. Diamonds started appearing in engagement rings in the Middle Ages, but they didn’t become widely popular until the late 19th century. Wedding bands have even older history, with evidence of their use in ancient Egypt. The circular shape was seen as a representation of eternity. When it comes to wearing both rings together, there are no strict rules. A common tradition is to wear the wedding band closest to the heart, followed by the engagement ring. Some people like to match their rings closely in terms of metal or design, while others follow a mix-and-match approach for contrast. The key is to choose rings that feel comfortable together and fit your personal style. If you’re pairing an engagement ring with a wedding band, consider how they sit against each other. Some engagement rings have high settings that allow a band to slide neatly underneath. Others may need a curved or contoured band to fit snugly. If you like symmetry, a classic straight band can complement almost any engagement ring. For a bolder look, an eternity band with diamonds all around can add extra sparkle. At the end of the day, it’s about what feels right for you, whether that’s a perfectly matching set or a more eclectic combination.
