What is an Eternity Ring?

An eternity ring is a type of ring that has diamonds or gemstones situated around the entire circumference of the band. The ring can symbolise your never ending love for your partner or the circle of life, in particular celebrating your partner’s birth of their first child. 

The eternity ring can be worn on your partner’s right ring finger, with the engagement ring and wedding band on the left ring finger. An eternity ring can also be used as an engagement ring, as you can combine this piece of jewellery to create an eternity and engagement ring.

 

 

When to Buy an Eternity Ring?

Diamond eternity rings are usually given for special occasions in a couple’s relationship, such as a 5th or 10th wedding anniversary. 

You may also buy this piece of jewellery as a birthday or Christmas present. An eternity ring can be bought as an alternative to an engagement ring, combining the two rings together to create an engagement and eternity ring. Other occasions you may consider buying an eternity ring include Valentine’s Day or a major milestone in your friendship with a friend. 

You can buy this type of ring to celebrate any life event you may wish to celebrate with someone special in your life, such as a gift for New Year’s Eve.

 

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF ETERNITY RINGS YOU CAN CHOOSE FROM?

There are two main types of eternity rings, full eternity rings and half eternity rings. Which eternity ring type you choose is entirely up to your friend or partner’s preference as that will play a key part in your purchase.

FULL ETERNITY RING

Full eternity rings feature a continuous band of gems or diamonds that encircle the entire ring. This type of eternity ring is a more expensive option than a half eternity ring, as it requires more gems or diamonds to complete the ring. 

 

However, a full eternity ring is a statement piece of jewellery, making it a popular choice for special occasions. The gems or diamonds in a full eternity ring are typically set closely together, creating a stunning and eye-catching display.

HALF ETERNITY RING

Half eternity rings feature a continuous band of gems or diamonds on half of the ring, with the other half of the ring being a plain metal band. 

This type of eternity ring is a popular choice for those who want the timeless beauty of an eternity ring without the higher price tag. The gems or diamonds in a half eternity ring are typically set into the ring's band, creating a beautiful and sparkly display.

 

The Difference Between a Half Eternity and Full Eternity Ring

The main difference between a half eternity ring and a full eternity ring is the amount of gems or diamonds that are included in the ring. 

A half eternity ring features a band of gemstones or diamonds on half of the ring, while a full eternity ring features a continuous band of gemstones or diamonds that encircle the entire ring. Additionally, a full eternity ring is a more expensive option than a half eternity ring due to the higher amount of gems or diamonds required to complete the ring.

HOW DO YOU WEAR AN ETERNITY RING?

Eternity rings can be worn in a variety of ways. They can be worn on their own as a standalone piece of jewellery or stacked with other rings for a unique and personalised look. 

Some people choose to wear their eternity ring on their wedding finger, while others prefer to wear it on their right hand. It’s entirely up to you when it comes to the best way to wear an eternity ring.
