What Does Your Eternity Ring Say About You?
An Eternity Ring symbolises everlasting love. From a full-channel design to a gemstone ring, what does yours say about you?
An Eternity Ring is the ultimate symbol of true love, and a token of love that is never-ending. An Eternity Ring is the perfect emblem that represents the ‘eternity' a married couple plan and wish to share together. The concept of Eternity Rings dates back 4,000 years to Egypt, when Egyptians gave rings made out of reeds to commemorate everlasting life and love. If you're choosing an Eternity Ring for your partner, or you're just looking for an Eternity Ring for a loved one, find out what your chosen ring says about you below.
Find out everything you need to know about Eternity Rings.
A Full Diamond Eternity Ring
A full Eternity Ring features a set of diamonds going all the way around the ring. In most cases, a full diamond Eternity Ring costs more than a half diamond Eternity Ring, as there are more diamonds featured in the design. Resizing a full eternity ring can be challenging, as the jewels will need to be added or removed from the ring.
A full Eternity Ring demands attention and is a timeless declaration of your commitment and loyalty to the special person in your life. It also shows just how confident you are in your relationship with your partner, and you're more than happy for this beautiful ring to compliment your breathtaking Wedding Ring and Engagement Ring.
A Half Diamond Eternity Ring
A half diamond Eternity Ring features a set of diamonds going half way around a ring. Because there aren't as many jewels, a half eternity ring isn't as expensive, and can be resized with ease as there aren't as many gems to add or remove.
If you find that you lead a more active lifestyle, then the half Eternity Ring is perfect as there won't be any diamonds or jewels on the underside of the band coming into contact with everything you touch. A half Eternity Ring shows that you love injecting a little glamour into your life, but you're also practical about what you want and need. Just because there aren't as many diamonds in a half Eternity Ring compared to a full, it doesn't detract from the endless love you feel for your beau and you're comfortable in your relationship.
A Gemstone Eternity Ring
A gemstone Eternity Ring adds a splash of colour and strays away from the traditional diamond Eternity Ring. Whether you love Sapphire, Tanzanite, Ruby or Emerald, a gemstone Eternity Ring shows that you have a fun side and a unique sense of style. Available in a range of pavé, prong and channel settings, a gemstone Eternity Ring is perfect for those who want to stray away from the traditional style ring.
Whether you're looking for a full, half or gemstone Eternity Ring, they all come in a range of styles - from a channel setting to a prong setting or pave setting, you'll find the perfect one to suit you with Diamond Heaven. Have a read through our Eternity Rings glossary for more in-depth explanations about eternity rings and the settings available.
A Channel Eternity Ring
A channel diamond ring is uniquely crafted, and has a row of diamonds secured within the ring. The metal prongs are hidden at the very top and bottom of each stone. A full or half channel Eternity Ring is fairly contemporary and shows that whilst you enjoy tradition, you're looking forward to the future and want something a little different to express your love.
