Wedding
rings symbolise commitment and eternal love. The
never-ending circle is a symbol of unity and eternity.
Years ago it was decided to place the wedding ring on
the third finger of the left hand, which ancient
Egyptians believed had a vein leading directly to the
heart. Romans called this vein the 'vein-amoris',
meaning 'vein of love'.
When choosing a wedding ring, comfort and fit are the
most crucial things to take into consideration as you
will be wearing it everyday. Appearance is obviously
important too - choosing a fairly simple and classic
wedding ring is a safe bet, however you could always
choose something unusual to make it unique.
It is important to consider the width of your
engagement ring when choosing your wedding ring.
Whilst it is perfectly acceptable to have rings of
different widths, or even a different shape, most
women tend to prefer a wedding ring of similar
width/shape to their engagement ring. However it is
just a matter of personal preference and there are no
strict rules to follow.
At Purely Diamonds you have a choice of traditional Court
wedding rings, Flat Court wedding
rings, Concave wedding rings and Diamond
Set wedding rings available in a variety of
widths and finger sizes.
If you are unsure of your ring/finger size, our
friends at Purely Diamonds can send you a
free ring-sizer in the post, as it is important to make
sure your wedding ring fits!
The Court
wedding ring is the most classic of them all. It is a
simple circular band, rounded inside (also known as
comfort-fit) and rounded outside. Available in
Platinum and 18ct gold (white, yellow and rose), plain
or diamond-set.
The Flat wedding ring sits closest
to the finger, as it is both flat on the inside and
on the outside. Our flat wedding rings are actually Flat
Court, which means they are slightly
courted inside (comfort-fit). Available in Platinum
and 18ct gold (white, yellow and rose), plain or
diamond-set.
The Concave wedding ring is a
dished circular wedding ring, slightly indented in
the centre (rounded inside (comfort-fit) but with a
concave exterior). Available in Platinum and 18ct
gold (white, yellow and rose).
A Diamond Set wedding ring can be
either Court, Flat Top or Concave, set with diamonds
of your choice. Available in Platinum and 18ct gold
(white, yellow and rose), with either princess cut,
round brilliant cut or baguette cut diamonds.
