Symbolize Your Timeless Love With A Diamond Eternity Ring
Modern diamond eternity rings are ordinarily “channel set” for comfort. A raised metal ridge is applied to either edge of the band and stones are mounted to sit within this height, once again making the ring comfortable for the wearer, while the stones receive additional light to accentuate their facets more completely. Individual “claw” set rings were previously used only in “half” eternity rings (the stones only set half way around the band.) With the ability to craft claw settings that fit tightly and can be smoothed to the point of comfort, they can now be set as a full eternity ring allowing even more brilliant shine to the stones. These rings must be made specifically for the recipient. Many individuals believe they mustn’t be sized because the band shouldn’t be cut–breaking the circle. Sizing could also mean that, because of the placement of the stones encircling the ring, some might be lost, or the alteration might make an uneven space in the band. So eternity rings are always purchased to size or made to order.
The stones on earlier diamond eternity rings were set only halfway around the circle (a half eternity ring.) They often came fashioned in the form of a snake swallowing its tail. This also symbolized the circle of love and life as something eternal. When stones were added, they were “flush mounted.” The stone was embedded at the same height as the metal band making the ring comfortable to wear no matter where the stone sat in regard to the fingers. Protruding stones would have irritated when they rested between fingers.
Diamonds also represent eternity as one of the most beautiful and strongest substances formed over a long period of time (eternity.) They signify loyalty, fidelity, eternal friendship, and undying love and devotion. These qualities have made them the perfect symbol promising an eternal life of togetherness. The use of diamonds on these eternity rings represent all the things the stones symbolize with their qualities embedded in an eternal circle, magnifying the meaning of the ring’s unending beauty.
