The most important piece of jewellery you will ever receive is your wedding ring, symbolizing love and devotion between a man and a woman.

One of the hardest things you will have to do is choose a ring there are so many patterns, metals and styles available you will be spoilt for choice. The main thing is to find the perfect ring because it is something you will wear and treasure for many years to come.

Because the ring is so important it will probably be the most expensive item of jewellery you will ever own so you need to make sure you choose the right one.

Traditionally wedding rings are worn on the left finger, as it is believed that the vein in this finger goes directly to the heart, although modern technology has shown that this theory is, in fact, wrong most people continue to wear their wedding ring on the same finger that this tradition still exists. In other parts of the world such as Germany, Poland and Norway and the ring is worn in the right hand.

When it comes to choosing a wedding ring there are many metals to choose from, Black Band, Pink Camouflage Ring, yellow gold and silver, white gold, rose gold, and many more.

Trusted jeweler and gemologist: Choose a professional place where you will be advised by a team of experts who have experience in it. It is important not to take risks and choose a piece of jewellery that is well known, that is aware of trends and that offers guarantees. A professional who is a jeweler with a degree in geology is always recommended as they will better advise you on the quality of the ring and the stones.

Talk to your partner: The tastes of the partner are important: the ring should reflect the personality of the wearer. In this process, your preferences regarding whether you prefer a ring in Black Ring, Silver Ring, Gold, white gold, yellow gold, with precious stones such as diamonds or without stones, are of great importance.

Make an effort, over time you will appreciate it. Although it seems that a jewel is always expensive, the price range is very wide and it is most likely that you can choose a ring that suits your budget as long as you are well-advised.

Personalize the ring: add some detail inside, such as adding a stone, engraving a special date or a dedicated message. Nowadays it is also a trend to make a special creation that makes the ring unique.

Get the size right: you can choose the size of a ring that has it as an approximate reference, although everything has an arrangement and can be adapted once given.

Choose the type of ring: either a solitaire ring with a single stone in the central part of a ring in the form of an alliance with full or half diamonds or Pink Camouflage Ring on Black Band.

Choose the material: white gold is the most used since it combines perfectly with the extra-white sparkle of diamonds, but you can also choose other materials such as Pink Camouflage Ring on Black Band, Silver, gold, yellow gold, raised gold or platinum.

Choosing the perfect stone: The stones to choose in an engagement ring are endless. The diamond, in any of its cuts, is the perfect stone and the one chosen by the majority, it symbolizes eternity and the desire to last a lifetime. You can also choose other stones such as Pink Camouflage Ring on Black Band, sapphires, rubies, emeralds.

Choose the perfect shape: there are endless beautiful shapes like the oval, the marquise or the baguette. The most characteristic is the round one, which we call brilliant-cut since it makes the light reflect perfectly through its 58 facets.

We would always recommend that you choose the same metal for your wedding ring as your engagement ring; this is because they will always be worn alongside each other so will need to match and complement each other.

Once you have decided on the metal you are going to have for your wedding ring you will need to decide on a pattern, the most popular wedding ring pattern is a plain band, normally the engagement ring is fancier so having a plain band won't take away its beauty.

Some couples may choose to have a personal message engraved on their wedding ring to give it an extra special uniqueness; sometimes the date of the wedding or the couple’s favorite song can make the ring extra special.

Whatever wedding ring you decide on you will always treasure this beautiful symbol of love.
