Finding the Right rings for You
Antique and vintage rings have long held a special place in the hearts of fine jewelry lovers all over the world.
No matter their origin or specific characteristics, rings are timeless, versatile accessories. They’ve carried deep meaning since at least the Middle Ages, when diamond rings symbolized strength and other kinds of rings were worn to signify romantic feelings or to denote an affiliation with a religious order. Rings have also forever been emblematic of eternity.
Over time, rings have frequently taken the form of serpents, which have long been associated with eternal life, health and renewal. Italian luxury jewelry house Bulgari has become famous for its widely loved Serpenti motif, for example, and its Serpenti ring, like the other accessories in the collection, began as an homage to jewelry of the Roman and Hellenistic eras. The serpent is now a popular motif in fine jewelry. Jewelry devotees have long pined for rings adorned with reptiles, thanks to antique Victorian rings — well, specifically, Queen Victoria’s illustrious engagement ring, which took the form of a gold snake set with rubies, diamonds and an emerald (her birthstone). Designs for Victorian-era engagement rings often featured repoussé work and chasing, in which patterns are hammered into the metal.
Engagement rings, which are reliably intimidating to shop for, are still widely recognized as symbols of love and commitment. On 1stDibs, a range of buying guides can be found for those in the market for antique engagement rings, vintage engagement rings or Art Deco engagement rings.
The most collectible antique engagement rings and vintage engagement rings are those from the Victorian, Edwardian and Art Deco eras. Named for the monarchies of the four King Georges, who in succession ruled England starting in 1714 (plus King William’s reign), antique Georgian rings, be they engagement rings or otherwise, are also coveted by collectors. Pearls, along with colored gemstones like garnets, rubies and sapphires, were widely used in Georgian jewelry. The late-1700s paste jewelry was a predecessor to what we now call fashion or costume jewelry.
The Art Nouveau movement (1880–1910) brought with it rings inspired by the natural world. Antique Art Nouveau rings might feature depictions of winged insects and fauna as well as women, who were simultaneously eroticized and romanticized, frequently with long flowing hair. Art Deco jewelry, on the other hand, which originated during the 1920s and ’30s, is by and large “white jewelry.” White metals, primarily platinum, were favored over yellow gold in the design of antique Art Deco rings and other accessories as well as geometric motifs, with women drawn to the era’s dazzling cocktail rings in particular.
Whether you’re hunting down a chunky classic for a Prohibition-themed cocktail party or seeking a clean contemporary design to complement your casual ensemble, find an exquisite collection of antique, new and vintage rings on 1stDibs.
Questions About Ancient Wedding Band
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023Yes, a wedding band can have gemstones. In fact, many men and women choose rings set with gemstones as their wedding jewelry. Some gemstones commonly used in wedding bands include diamonds, emeralds, sapphires, rubies and amethysts. Any type of ring can be used as a wedding band if it appeals to you. Shop a wide range of gemstone wedding bands on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, you can have a sapphire wedding band. You're free to wear any ring that you like as a wedding band. Sapphires can be a symbolic choice because of their traditional association with romance and fidelity. On 1stDibs, shop a wide range of sapphire wedding bands from some of the world's top dealers.
- Can you contour a wedding band?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Whether you can contour a wedding band after it's purchased depends on its design and materials. With softer metals and the right style, it may be possible for a jeweler to contour the ring, but it won't be possible to reshape many bands. However, you can purchase specially contoured wedding bands intended to fit the curves of engagement rings. Find a diverse assortment of contour wedding bands on 1sDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2021A channel set wedding band has the stones set between two walls of metal. There are no prongs between the stones, so the stones are nestled alongside one another. Shop a range of antique and vintage channel set wedding bands on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023What a pink wedding band means is open to interpretation. During the Elizabethan era, pink gemstones were synonymous with happiness and delight. Today, some people associate them with love and innocence. A person may also choose to wear a pink wedding band simply because they like its appearance. Find a collection of pink wedding bands on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023Yes, a woman can just wear a wedding band, whether for personal preference, comfort or style. In some cases, a woman may choose not to receive or wear an engagement ring. Others may stop wearing an engagement ring after their wedding day. There are no rules regarding wedding jewelry, so do what feels best for you. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023No, the wedding band is not usually the engagement ring. A band is a ring that is a continuous metal circle. Typically, couples exchange wedding bands during their wedding ceremony. An engagement ring is a piece worn to celebrate a promise to marry, and brides typically continue to wear it above their wedding bands. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of wedding jewelry from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023There is no standard when it comes to how many carats a wedding band should be. To achieve a unified look, choose a wedding band that balances the proportions of your engagement ring. Experts typically recommend a 2:1 ratio for engagement ring and wedding band carats. For example, if you have a 1-carat engagement ring, a wedding band with a total weight of 0.5 carats would be a good match. On 1stDibs, explore a wide variety of wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023What a diamond wedding band means is largely up to the interpretation of the person who wears it. Due to their hardness, diamonds are often associated with longevity; on a wedding band, they convey a meaning of eternal love. Some see diamonds as representing marriage itself due to the long history of brides-to-be receiving diamond engagement rings. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of diamond wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Whether a ring wrap can be a wedding band depends largely on its style. Generally, ring wraps work best when placed beside another ring due to their shape and the placement of their stones. As a result, most may look incomplete when worn alone. However, some round double-band ring wraps may be suitable for use as standalone wedding rings. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023Whether you need a contoured wedding band depends on what your engagement ring looks like and your personal preference. Generally, people pair contoured wedding bands with engagement rings that feature curved gemstone cuts, such as the round brilliant cut, the oval cut and the pear cut. It's less common to choose contoured rings to wear with angled cut styles like the marquise, or squared-off princess and emerald cuts. Explore a selection of contoured wedding bands on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024Yes, it is okay to have diamonds on a wedding band. In fact, many men and women choose wedding rings featuring diamonds. There are pieces with just one diamond as well as ones that flaunt multiple diamonds. You can also find eternity bands that have diamonds all the way around their surfaces. There are no rules when it comes to wedding rings, so you're free to choose anything that appeals to you. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of diamond wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 23, 2024There are no rules about whether or not a woman's wedding band should have diamonds. Many wedding bands feature solitaire diamonds, rows of diamonds or diamonds that run all the way along their surfaces. However, women can also choose wedding bands that feature a different type of gemstone or none at all. Any ring that appeals to you can serve as your wedding band. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Russian wedding rings have three wedding bands due to religious traditions. In the Russian Orthodox Church, three rings represent the Holy Trinity. In more recent years, the triple ring has also taken on a secular meaning with many people now associating the bands with the past, present and future of a married couple. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of wedding bands.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023What a white sapphire represents in a wedding band is up to personal interpretation. Some people believe that a white sapphire wedding band represents chastity and purity due to the color of the gemstone. Because white sapphires were once a talisman used to ward off evil spirits in India, they can also be symbols of good luck in a marriage. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of white sapphire wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023What a white gold wedding band means is open to interpretation. However, many people simply equate the rings with the promise to remain married to someone for the rest of their lives. While the circle shape has always symbolized an unending pledge of love to one's partner, preferred materials in the production of wedding bands have changed over time (white gold and yellow gold are among the most popular metals). Some people associate white gold with purity and innocence due to its color. Shop a diverse assortment of white gold wedding bands on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Whether men like wedding bands with diamonds is a matter of personal taste. Some men prefer the more minimalist look of a domed or flat wedding band free of gemstones.
