Eternity rings

Traditionally, eternity bands are often exchanged on special occasions like anniversaries or significant milestones in a relationship. They act as a tangible reminder of enduring affection and achievements as a couple. 

But they’re not exclusively for those in relationships–eternity rings can be used to mark personal achievements, career advancements, the birth of a child or simply just because. And one of the best things about them? They stack perfectly. This means with each milestone, a new ring can be added to your collection to mix and match and wear as you wish.

Traditionally, eternity rings act as a token of commitment due to the symbolism that lies within the unbroken circle of metal, gemstones or diamonds. The neverending circle represents a love that knows no end. 

Whether given on a special occasion or as a gesture of everlasting devotion, an eternity ring carries profound meaning, encapsulating emotions and sentiment that sometimes words can’t capture.

It’s up to you–you can make your own rules when it comes to jewellery.

Yes, you can absolutely lean into their romantic symbolism and gift them to your partner to mark a special moment or occasion for you as a couple, or to mark an anniversary. 

But it isn’t restricted to romantic days–perhaps you’re celebrating passing an exam, or a milestone birthday–you can gift this to a loved one or to yourself. You deserve it!

Ultimately, the timing of giving an eternity ring is a personal decision, guided by the desire to express love, celebrate milestones, and create lasting memories.

Anyone! As with anything that allows for self-expression, this isn’t a hard and fast rule. Some couples choose to exchange matching eternity rings, with both partners wearing them as a symbol of their mutual love and commitment, much like a wedding ring, while others may choose to mix and match eternity rings to symbolise different life moments, whether they’re in a relationship or not.

Absolutely! While eternity rings are often associated with marriage and anniversaries, there are no strict rules regarding who can wear them. 

Eternity rings can be worn by anyone who wishes to–be it for sentimental reasons or for purely aesthetic reasons. Eternity bands are all about personal preference and the significance one attaches to the symbolism of an eternity ring.

If you’re choosing to wear an eternity band to mark an anniversary, it might make sense to wear it stacked up against your engagement and wedding ring on the ring finger of your left hand. 

However, this isn’t a hard rule. You can wear your eternity band on any finger of either hand. The finger you choose to wear a ring on can be influenced by a whole host of reasons, from cultural traditions or comfortability, to personal style, but as long as it works for you, it’s right.
