Frequently Asked Questions
What are eternity rings?
Eternity rings are traditionally the third ring you receive from your partner after your engagement ring and wedding band, and are typically given as an anniversary gift.
Eternity rings can be traced back to Ancient Egypt, before regaining popularity in the 1960s thanks to the everlasting beauty of the diamond.
The eternity ring meaning is vast and multifaceted: It can signify everlasting love and a deep devotion to one another; it can represent the circle of life or even be used to reestablish life goals.
Some people love eternity rings for their aesthetic appeal and the way they complement other rings in a bridal set. From their array of diamond designs, these rings offer an elevated sense of beauty. Always a stunning choice, the white gold eternity ring offers subtle elegance which is the perfect complement to diamonds. A rose gold eternity ring offers a romantic blush and a sense of vintage charm, while the yellow gold eternity ring is a classic symbol of enduring love.
When do you receive an eternity ring?
An eternity ring is usually given to a partner to mark a significant wedding anniversary, like your first or tenth.
It can also be used to mark an important milestone in your lives, like buying your first home or celebrating the arrival of your first child. Give a diamond eternity ring to your partner at Christmas or on Valentine’s Day to make the occasion feel truly special or give them one as a birthday gift. You can even use an eternity ring when renewing your wedding vows, helping to reaffirm your commitment to one another and to celebrate all that you’ve achieved together.
But you don’t have to wait for an anniversary or milestone to give someone an eternity ring – any time is the perfect time. It can be a wonderful way to tell someone how much you love them ‘just because.’ Or why not spoil yourself with an eternity ring to add to your wedding ring set?
Can you wear eternity rings every day?
Eternity rings are meant to be worn for just that – eternity.
Now more popular than ever, eternity rings tend to be made from metals that are strong, lightweight and able to retain a beautiful lustre for many years to come, with the right care and maintenance.
The type of metal you choose for your eternity ring depends on personal preference and how it will complement your wedding band and engagement ring. Gold eternity rings have a versatility and timeless appeal, whichever colour of gold you choose.
Eternity rings come in a variety of styles, some designed with contours to fit seamlessly within your existing wedding ring set, framing your engagement ring beautifully while providing a stylish sense of cohesion.
Like the most perfect kind of love, an eternity ring is truly timeless, and can be worn each and every day with proper care.
