If you go to a Natural History Museum, you’ll see that people have been donning rings since ancient Egypt… now that’s a bloody long time. But come on, look at ‘em! These gorgeous pieces of jewellery are timeless accessories that can be styled for every occasion and on every finger.

Keep it traditional with elegant gold or sterling silver bands wrapped around index and ring fingers, or go for an attention grabbing statement piece like Monolama’s Hornbill plexiglass ring (which would look good on any finger).

A ring can double up as more than just a pretty face, and usually symbolises love and other special feelings. With it’s circular shape, it’s the perfect ornament to represent eternal commitment (*cough engagement ring *cough), but they can also reflect love in many other forms - from the plutonic to the familial, you’ll find it all here - we’re sure.

What Are The Different Kinds Of Rings:

Turns out there’s lots of different kinds of rings to rock, with each one having the ability to highlight your own unique style. Whether you’re a wallflower or a bolshy peacock, let your ring do the talking.

A statement ring is designed to turn heads. Typically used as a fashion accessory rather than a commemorative piece of jewellery, a statement ring is anything that’s bold, daring and stylish. Find noteworthy trends here, from Oform’s bright neon, triangular pointed ring, to Me & Zena’s uber cool gold ring with the word ‘Cosmic’ scripted in. Adorn your fingers with either of these pieces and guarantee you’ll get some comments.

Stackable rings are a must for any committed fashionista. A ring that might not be that spectacular on its own, watch it come alive when you pair it with a series of other bespoke rings. Whether you stack 3 or 4 rings of the same colour or mix and match a series of different coloured gold, yellow gold and sterling silver rings, it’s a bold look that’s easy to achieve. Go for a handful of B Kreb’s delicate, thin, yellow gold rings, or go for one and combine it with Myia Bonner’s skinny ball stacking ring in silver. .

If you and your SO are on the road to holy matrimony but aren’t quite there yet, a promise ring is a happy halfway house. Symbolising love and devotion, this is the perfect ring for couples who want to showcase their commitment to each other without an engagement ring. They can also be great gift for two friends who have made the eternal promise of life long friendship, as this is a love that should be celebrated just as equally. Now, what exactly makes a good promise ring? They’re normally smaller and subtler than engagement rings, so understated gems and sterling silver makes for a great promise ring. Lentsius Design’s twin rings in stainless steel would be perfect for this, giving you an opportunity to both wear the same ring to show your love, or Anoa’s heart ring in gold fill would also work well.

Last but certainly not least: the engagement ring. This is the where to pull the guns out, the full frontal firework display of love that seals the deal till death do us part. A classic engagement ring usually features a diamond rock and a sterling silver or platinum band. But, each relationship is totally unique and so too is your respective styles. Anything can be an engagement ring if you want it to be, as long as it perfectly resembles your love for each other.

How To Choose A Ring For Your Significant Other:

As Beyonce said, if you like it then you should have put a ring on it. Whether you’re going for a big declaration of love like a marriage proposal or a first Valentine’s together gift (avoid kneeling at all costs whilst gifting the ring), we’ve got a selection of bespoke rings to suit any romantic occasion.

When approaching your first gift-giving moment, whether it’s a birthday, Valentine’s Day or Christmas, you might find yourself stuck between a rock and a hard place. When you’ve not been together that long, you don’t want to send the wrong message by getting an over the top ring that could resemble an engagement ring. Equally, it would also be weird not to get them something, and a ring can be a lovely, low-key gift if done correctly. If you find yourself in that weird ‘dating exclusively but not we’re not officially BF and Gf/ BF and BF/ GF and GF’ relationship limbo, keep it casual yet flirty with Takao’s quirky pear ring in violet enamel with a brass chain band. Or, Kaalee Jewellery’s cork for ring in black sky would also be a great shout.

If you’ve dived head first into a relationship and are loudly in love, choose a ring to symbolise this. Make sure everyone knows (including your SO) about your love for them with Be Maad’s 18k gold Meruba ring set with a moonstone. Or, if your lover has a penchant for silver, Jonathan Radetz’s sterling silver spiral ring is a perfect declaration of eternal love.
