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 Antique Wedding Rings
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, a wedding ring can be a diamond ring. In fact, you're free to wear any type of ring that appeals to you as a wedding ring. You could opt to wear a solitaire diamond ring to symbolize your wedding vows or a band ring that features multiple diamonds, such as an eternity band that shows diamonds all the way around its surface. Find a large selection of diamond wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 27, 2023Yes, a solitaire ring can be a wedding ring. Some men choose to wear a ring set with a single gemstone, like a diamond or a sapphire, to symbolize their wedding vows. Women may also opt for solitaire rings. However, it can be difficult to wear a solitaire ring with an engagement ring. You can address this challenge by wearing your wedding ring on your left hand and your engagement ring on your right hand. On 1stDibs, shop a wide variety of wedding rings.
- Can wedding rings be gold?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Yes, wedding rings can be gold. Your options also aren't limited to the traditional warm-glowing yellow, as many makers offer wedding rings in white gold and rose gold as well. Most wedding rings feature 14-karat or 18-karat gold rather than pure 24-karat gold because alloys are stronger and more resistant to breakage and scratching. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of gold wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023How wedding rings should be stacked is up to you. Traditionally, brides place their engagement rings above their wedding rings, so the jewelry they exchanged during their wedding ceremonies is closer to their hearts. However, many people now choose to place their engagement rings on the bottom and use their wedding bands to secure them. Explore a wide range of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- What is a wedding ring quilt?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 17, 2021A wedding ring quilt, more formally known as a double wedding ring quilt, is a quilt pattern that has long symbolized love and romance. The interlocking rings of these quilt patterns symbolize marriage and were often given by a mother or grandmothers to their children as a gift on their wedding day. Shop wedding ring quilts on 1stDibs.com
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023The rings that are best for a wedding are the ones that appeal to you. There are no hard-and-fast rules for wedding jewelry, so any ring can function as a wedding ring. However, some rings are more commonly used than others. Minimalist domed and flat bands, pavé bands set with small stones placed side by side and eternity bands with larger stones that travel all the way around the edge are some examples. Diamonds are a traditional choice for wedding rings, but rings may also display colored gemstones or be completely free of gems. Wedding rings can also feature a variety of precious metals, such as platinum, white gold, yellow gold and rose gold. Shop a large selection of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- Did Vikings have wedding rings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Yes, Vikings had wedding rings. During a Viking wedding ceremony, the rings were placed on the hilts of swords. The couple then exchanged both the swords and the rings to represent their union. After the wedding, the bride and groom would then wear their rings to signify their marriage. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of wedding rings.
- Does Tiffany have wedding rings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Yes, Tiffany does have wedding rings. The luxury jewelry maker produces wedding rings for both men and women out of platinum, rose gold, yellow gold and white gold. Styles range from minimalist dome bands to rings set with gemstones like diamonds, rubies and sapphires. On 1stDibs, explore a range of Tiffany & Co. wedding rings.
- Can wedding rings be silver?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 12, 2023Yes, wedding rings can be silver. Typically, jewelry makers use .925 sterling silver to produce wedding bands due to its strength and tarnish resistance. You can also find silver-toned wedding rings made of other materials like white gold and platinum. On 1stDibs, explore a large selection of wedding rings from some of the world's top dealers.
- What are stacked wedding rings?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Stacked wedding rings are multiple wedding bands worn together on the same finger. Some stacked rings include two bands, which are often worn above and below an engagement ring to help hold it in place. You can also find matching triple-band stacking sets, which can symbolize the Christian Holy Trinity or a couple's past, present and future. Explore a wide variety of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- Why are wedding rings stacked?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Wedding rings are stacked to allow a person to wear all of their bridal jewelry at once. Often, a person will receive an engagement ring when accepting a marriage proposal. Then, a couple will typically exchange a set of rings on their wedding day. Stacking makes it possible to show off both the engagement and wedding rings. Some people position the wedding ring on the bottom so it is closest to the heart, while others prefer to put it on top to securely hold the engagement ring. Explore a large collection of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 8, 2023Yes, you can wear a diamond ring as a wedding ring if you wish. Your wedding jewelry should reflect your taste and style, so you're free to choose any type of ring you desire. One option is to wear a diamond solitaire as a wedding ring. An eternity wedding band dotted with diamonds is a popular alternative. Many brides opt for two identical eternity bands, wearing one on either side of the engagement ring as guard rings. Shop a wide range of diamond wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 1, 2023Yes, you can use your engagement ring as your wedding ring. Although many people choose to wear a separate wedding band, you're free to have your new spouse slip your engagement ring onto your finger during your wedding ceremony. In this case, you would forego wearing a wedding band entirely. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of antique and vintage engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 3, 2023What a three-ring wedding ring means is largely a matter of personal interpretation. However, many people associate the top engagement ring with the promise of marriage, the middle ring or wedding ring with the promise of vows and the third ring or eternity ring with anniversaries. Shop a collection of wedding rings from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 2, 2023Whether your wedding ring should match your engagement ring is up to personal preference. Many people choose engagement rings and wedding rings that complement one another in shape, color and materials. However, you're free to choose whatever rings appeal to you. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of wedding and engagement rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023The third wedding ring worn below an engagement ring and wedding band is called an eternity ring. In most cases, the eternity ring is a gift purchased by the spouse to mark a milestone anniversary like the first, fifth or tenth. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of rings from some of the world's top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023The symbolic meaning of wedding rings is a matter of individual interpretation. However, many people believe that the rings represent the commitment that a person makes to remain someone else's romantic partner for the rest of their lives. To these individuals, the wedding band is a reminder of marriage vows. Wedding rings also serve as a sign that a person is married rather than single. Explore a large selection of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023The hardest metal for wedding rings is tungsten carbide. Its hardness is such that it ranks just below diamonds, making it incredibly durable but also difficult for jewelry makers to work with. As a result, the styles of tungsten rings are limited. Other hard metals for wedding rings that allow for more versatile design possibilities include steel, titanium and cobalt chrome. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of wedding rings.
- 1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Opinions vary on how long before your wedding you should get your rings. Some experts recommend starting 3 to 4 months in advance to give yourself enough time to find the right rings and to allow enough lead time for special orders or sizing adjustments as needed. Others state that you should wait until 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding in case of weight fluctuations that may alter the fit. Explore a large collection of wedding rings on 1stDibs.
