Eternity Rings- Symbol of an Unending Love


History-
Eternity rings have always been admired irrespective of whether one knows it by name or not. It has been years long enough to calculate the inception of eternity rings in the American culture, but it has certainly been a part of our auspicious occasions like weddings and anniversaries since ages. With the growing variety in wedding bands, eternity rings has certainly become a stylish trend that complements the engagement ring well.

Significance-
Eternity means endlessness and an endless commitment comes symbolized with a circular band having no ends. And these circular bands are usually embedded with pure looking diamonds that embody fidelity, purity, loyalty, intimacy and devotion. This ring is usually gifted on the first anniversary, first baby or at any important stage in the life of a couple, mainly due to the embodiment of an eternal love that remains intact at every point in the circle of life.

Metal & Embedment-
The metal used to design an eternity ring could be gold, platinum or anything else. The important aspect of it is to just be durable enough to last a lifetime. It may be either completely covered with diamonds or half covered, but both give an equally gorgeous appeal. Sometimes eternity rings may also feature colored gemstones or alternated with diamonds, depending on the personal penchants.
