Browse Diamond Eternity Rings
Diamond eternity rings are among the most popular forms of diamond
jewelry when it comes to
symbolic meanings and representations of commitment.
The eternal loop or ribbon representing eternal love dates back 4000 years. Similarly, the design
of a snake swallowing his own tail was also used, symbolizing endlessness and regeneration.
The main characteristic of eternity rings is that they are stone set, often with
diamonds.
The “full” eternity ring has stones around the shank while the “half” eternity ring has stones set
partially around the shank. Although the “full” eternity ring is more traditional, it can cost as
much as 3 times as much as a “half” eternity ring.
Diamonds are considered the stone of choice for eternity rings, many other gemstones such as
rubies, sapphires, and emeralds, are frequently used. Full eternity rings usually cannot be
resized. Sizes of the stones are limited and require expert jewelry cutters to produce. Conversely,
half eternity rings can be easily adjusted for finger size, are more widely available at jewelry
stores, and can showcase a select few stones at the head beautifully.
Stone Cut:
Most women wear diamond solitaire rings with a round brilliant. With eternity rings, square and
oblong stones are preferred because they can be set length to length along the shank.
Ring Ringer:
Eternity rings are treated just as the wedding ring and have traditionally been worn on the
third finger of the left hand. The particular order of the eternity ring, engagement ring, and
wedding ring is not specific and should be left to the couple to decide based on personal
preference.
