A great engagement ring is a ring indicating that the person wearing it is involved to be married, especially in Western cultures. A engagement ring is presented as an engagement gift by a partner to their possible spouse when they suggest marriage or directly after having a marriage proposal is accepted. It represents a conventional agreement to future relationship. In Western countries, engagement rings are worn mainly by women, and rings can feature diamonds or other gemstones. In some cultures men and women wear matching rings, and engagement rings could also be used as wedding rings. In Anglo-Saxon countries, the ring is customarily worn on the left hand side hands ring finger, but traditions vary considerably elsewhere across the world.
A pair in a committed connection may give one another and wear pre-engagement rings, also called friendship or assure rings. Neither the engagement nor any other engagement ring is worn during the wedding ceremony, when the wedding ring is put by the groom on the finger of the bride as part of the ceremony, and frequently by the bride onto the groom's finger. Following the wedding, the engagement ring is usually put back on, and it is usually worn on the outside of the wedding ring. Some birdes-to-be have their engagement and wedding rings permanently soldered together after the wedding.
In many countries, engagement rings are located on the ring finger of the left hand. From one time it was believed that this little finger contained a vein (the vena amoris) that generated the heart. This idea was popularized by Henry Swinburne in A treatise of Spousals, or Matrimonial Contracts (1686). The story seems to have the origin in the ancient Roman book Attic Times by Aulus Gellius citing Apion's Aegyptiacorum, where the alleged vein was actually a nervus (a term that can be converted either as "nerve" or "sinew").
The popular idea that an engagement ring was initially part of the bride price which represented purchase and ownership of the bride, has been called into question by modern day scholarship.
In the second millennium BC, the Roman bride-to-be was given two bands, a gold one which she wore in public, and one made from flat iron which she wore at home while focusing on home duties. At one time Roman citizens wore rings made of iron. In later years senators who served as ambassadors were given precious metal seal rings for established use when abroad. Later the privilege that comes with rare metal rings was extended to other public officials, then to the knights, later to all freeborn, and finally under Justinian, to freedmen. For several centuries it was the custom for Romans to wear iron rings at home, rare metal rings in public. In the course of this period a female or woman might receive two engagement rings, one of iron and one of gold.
In the Combined States, where engagement jewelry are worn by women, diamonds have been broadly featured in engagement jewelry since the middle of the 20th century. Solitaire rings have one main single diamonds. The most common establishing for engagement rings is the solitaire prong establishing, in 1886 and its six-claw prong setting design sold under the "Tiffany setting" trademark. The modern favorite cut for an engagement ring is the brilliant cut, which provides the maximum amount of sparkle to the gemstone. The traditional engagement rings may have different prong settings and rings. Another major category is engagement rings with part stones. Rings with a larger precious stone set in the middle and smaller diamonds on the side fit under this category. Three-stone diamonds engagement rings, sometimes called trinity rings or three set rings, are rings with three matching diamonds arranged horizontally in a line with the larger stone placed in the center. The about three diamonds on the ring are typically said to represent the couple's previous, present, and future, but other folks give religious significance to the arrangement.
The wedding set, or marriage set, includes an proposal ring and a wedding band that matches and can be purchased as a set. In some cases, the wedding ring looks "incomplete"; it is just when the two halves, engagement and wedding, are assembled that the band looks whole. In other cases, a wedding set involves two rings that match stylistically and are worn stacked, although either piece would look appropriate as a separate ring. Although the wedding band is not to be worn until the wedding day, both rings are usually sold together as a wedding set. After the wedding, the bride may choose to have the two pieces welded together, to increase convenience and reduce the likelihood of losing one of the jewelry. A trio ring arranged includes a females engagement ring, ladies wedding strap and a men's wedding band. These sets frequently have matching rings and are lower in price.
