Eternity Rings – For A Love That Lasts Forever

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

True love is something that deserves to be celebrated, and there’s no better way of signifying that special bond than by giving your partner a beautiful eternity ring. Eternity rings are given as a way to show your undying love for one another, symbolizing your devotion in the best possible way.

There tends to be a set route that people go down when it comes to these rings. First of all there’ll be the engagement ring, then the wedding ring, and then eternity rings are the icing on the cake that finishes the whole thing off. They’re a traditional symbol of commitment to each other, and have long been used as a way to solidify the marital bond.

Some people simply don’t want to go down the traditional route, and that’s fine too – eternity rings can be a great alternative to show your love and commitment, and are often given to symbolise that love even without a wedding ring.

Diamonds traditionally form the basis of these rings, and doing so makes perfect sense. Diamond rings, and diamonds in general, have always been a symbol of true love, so what could be better than showing that love through a beautiful diamond eternity ring?

Giving your loved one an eternity ring is sure to fill them with happiness. Perhaps you want to do it as a surprise for an anniversary, or you simply have no other reason than “just because”. Whatever your reasons and whenever you’re going to do it, you’ll need to come to us here at ROX where you’ll find a fantastic selection of truly stunning eternity rings that can’t fail to impress.

Look After Your Diamond Jewellery

Tuesday, June 1st, 2010

You could be forgiven for thinking that you don’t have to worry about diamond rings becoming worn, but this is not entirely the case. Despite diamond jewellery being made from one of the hardest substances on earth, it can become worn, so make sure you follow a few guidelines and you will avoid this. For example, if you wear any other rings next to a diamond ring some abrasion may occur, as a diamond in direct contact with other diamond jewellery will rub away at the other stone. Eventually, your diamond may also be slightly worn down if they have been placed together for too long. Wearing two rings close together can cause the abrasion of metal as well, so it’s probably best if you never take your rings off to wear them on opposite hands or a few fingers apart.

There are a number of materials that can be used to clean diamonds and their mount, including soapy water, some detergents and alcohol, but don’t use abrasive substances which may damage your diamond jewellery. diamond rings can also attract grease, and after a while if not cleaned they will lose their sparkly and can become dull. This applies to all diamond jewellery, whether it is eternity rings, cluster rings or diamond bracelets, so a little bit of maintenance will ensure that your diamond jewellery will never lose its sparkle.

Is Your Diamond Ring Stuck On Your Finger?

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

It does happen, especially for wedding and eternity rings that are worn all day every day for years. Getting diamond rings stuck also happens when the gentleman making the proposal guesses the ring size wrong. Understandably reluctant to spoil the surprise by asking the (hopefully) bride to be her size, most people make a guess, and of course that choice might not be spot on.

So, what to do if diamond rings gets stuck? First of all, don’t worry at it. That will just cause the finger to swell, which will only make it worse and can result in quite severe pain and even harm the hand. Don’t try to use butter, soap, or oil as a lubricant either. It probably won’t help and will almost certainly get stuck in the setting. Diamond rings can be difficult to clean, and that is especially true when substances like these get into them.

18ct yellow gold diamond half eternity ring 0.33ctRun the hand with the ring on it under a cold tap for a minute or two. The chill will take down any swelling and divert blood away from the fingers, making them significantly thinner in size. Make sure the plug is in the sink first though! That might well do the trick. If not, try soaking the hand in ice water for as long as you can bear to get the same effect, only more so.

Once you’ve got the ring off, get it re-sized. For any diamond rings sold by ROX, your first resizing is free. Any high street jeweller will be happy measure your finger for ring size. Send it back to us with your measured size, and we’ll sort it out for you. We resize to the highest standards, so you needn’t fear that the ring will look any different or lose quality when we resize it.

The History Of Eternity Rings

Thursday, April 29th, 2010

Eternity rings share the same symbolism as wedding rings and other diamond rings. The circle symbolises love with no beginning and no end – eternal.

While wedding rings and diamond engagement rings tend to have stones focused in the centre of the ring, eternity rings are made up of many small diamonds. In the ‘full’ eternity ring, diamonds continue all the way around the band, while the ‘half’ eternity ring has diamonds half-way around the band.

Another difference between the design of eternity rings and other diamond rings is the settings of the stones. In solitaire diamond rings, for example, claws are used to hold the stone in place. This is so the diamond catches the most amount of light and gives off the greatest amount of sparkle (though the cut and clarity will impact upon this too).

18ct rose gold diamond half eternity ring 0.20ctIt is not possible to use claws in the construction of full eternity rings, due to the risk of irritating skin on the underside of the finger. Therefore, it is usually the case that in full eternity rings the stones are embedded into the shank, while claws are sometimes used in the settings of half eternity rings.

Eternity rings are usually given to celebrate the first anniversary, or to commemorate the birth of a child. Often, a ruby and diamond eternity ring is presented to the wife by her husband on their ruby anniversary.
