Vintage style gold rose flower blue sailor anchor swallow double finger ring


Some days ago people only know about gold and silver as base metal and diamond, emerald and pearl and some other gems but today wedding rings are made of platinum, titanium and tungsten. Alloy of gold and other metals like nickel etc are being mixed in order to make gold more new and uncommon. It is called white gold. So you can see what and how much evolution has been made in this particular aspect.

Wedding ring or engagement ring symbolized commitment for lifetime. In certain countries wedding ring is worn on the base of the left ring finger. In other countries this is worn on the right ring finger. It was thought that Swallow Double Finger Ring is to be worn in the fourth finger in the left hand because the finger is directly joined to the heart and thus it is believed that wearing ring on this finger will prove to be lifelong bondage of heart. But the belief is proved wrong but the ritual is not hampered. People wear this jewelry according to their custom and culture.


The Ancient Romans were the first to place the ring on the left ring finger as most in the West do today. Their reason was that they believed that from this finger lay the vena amoris, a vein that runs straight to the heart. This shows that they did indeed have a romantic streak, despite their reputation for bi-sexual extra-marital activity. The circle of the engagement ring is very symbolic in many ways. It represents eternity because it has no beginning or end. It is also known to mean renewal and wholeness. Vintage style gold rings are a popular choice at current. They tend to be much cheaper than new ones, and add a spark of romance because they have a tale attached to them. Some see it as a greener option as it is the recycling of old items.

Wedding and engagement rites are imbued with a host of symbolic features. Indeed, anthropologists state that elements such as the design of the engagement ring indicate the betrothed duos identity. A couple may have it inscribed in French to show their cultured station in society, while another couple may include a massive diamond to show off their affluence and extravagant lifestyle. They are not only reminding themselves and each other of this, but communicating their identities to their surround community. Some think of comfort when choosing. They consider how they will feel wearing it for the duration of their lifetime. The engagement ring can be shaped to fit well with the wedding band for this purpose.

Many have precious stones attached to the wedding band. A recent tradition is to include a diamond. This became a widespread affair due to intensive advertising campaigns which coincided with the rising affluence of the West. Many have opted out of this addition to their band, however, because two thirds of the world's diamonds are unethically sourced. Indeed, the collocation blood diamonds has entered public discourse. This refers to the mining of diamonds which funds insurgencies, predominantly in African countries. Fair trade diamonds are becoming better known on the market.
