Why buy a promise Ring?
Promise rings have gained popularity in recent years because they are usually more affordable than a typical engagement ring yet they represent the love and commitment between a couple. But promise rings aren't just for couples who plan to get married someday. They can represent almost any kind of promise or pledge an individual has made or even serve as a reminder of a friend or loved one a person has lost. The following buyers guide gives detailed information regarding what to look for and how to choose a promise ring.
What Size?
Promise rings are usually not large, bulky rings. They are often small and comfortable since they are to be worn on a daily basis. The ring needs to fit the personality and unique style of the individual wearing it. The person wearing the ring should decide which finger it will go on before choosing a size.
What Kind of Band?
A precious metal such as gold and silver is the best choice for a promise ring. Gold is a quality metal, yet not as expensive as platinum. White gold can be chosen if the person wants a different color. Gold comes in a variety of alloys as well. Rose alloys have the addition of copper. The more copper in the band the deeper the rose color. There are even green alloys for those who desire something completely different. These are created by adding silver to the gold. It's recommended to avoid base metals such as nickel, steel, and certain types of pewter. Some metals can become discolored over time.
What Kind of Gemstone
There are several types of gemstones that can be selected for a promise ring. Diamonds are obviously a popular choice. A cluster of tiny diamonds can also be chosen for a more elegant look. Cubic Zirconia is also an option for those who love the look of diamonds but need something less expensive. There are several gemstones that can be used in a promise ring if a person is looking for color.
A Different Type of Ring?
Gemstones are not essential for a promise ring. Some individuals choose designs such as hearts or shapes like flowers that have special significance to the person wearing the ring. Intertwined or knotted bands are other options for creating a unique design.
