Ring History
In ancient times, Egyptians took pieces of hemp or other reedy plants
and fashioned them into circles that would be worn by women as a symbol
of marriage. No one knows exactly why the Egyptians decided to create
these first wedding rings. Maybe they were romantics. After all, they
believed the fourth finger contained a vena amoris – that is a vein
of love that ran directly from the hand to the heart. And they worshiped
the Sun and the Moon for their circular shapes, which were eternal by
design.
The practice was later picked up by Sultans and Roman men to symbolize
their ownership of the women they married. Hemp rings, which only lasted
a year if the owner was lucky, gave way to longer lasting metal rings.
Though, rust was a problem, and eventually gold and silver became the
standard. During World War II, it became fashionable for men to also wear
wedding rings, so as to better remember
the wives they left behind. And now, thousands of years after the Egyptians
designed those first symbols of marriage, wedding rings have become more
popular than ever.

has that made finding the perfect wedding ring even harder? This site

Some Rings to Think About:
Diamond Wedding Rings:
Viewed as one of the most indestructible jewels on earth, it’s
no wonder diamonds have become the traditional gem of choice for bridal
jewelry. Those who crave a different look often purchase a traditional
ring and pair it with a unique band. Diamond rings may also be offset
with side stones – usually other diamonds, but colored gems like
rubies, emeralds and sapphires are also becoming popular.
Men’s Wedding Rings and Bands:

Men’s wedding bands
have never been more popular – or comfortable. Those who are not
used to wearing jewelry will find a friend in titanium, which has a great
weightless feel – but can’t be resized. You can also opt for
two-toned rings, which allows for a more unique and artistic look. And
many men are choosing wedding bands with an embedded diamond, so that
women are no longer the only ones who get to enjoy this beautiful stone.
And one can never go wrong with the traditional gold, silver, and platinum
wedding band, which thanks to advances in jewelry making, are more
comfortable than ever.
