whatever the personalization, there is no denying that engagement ring symbolism factors heavily into a couple's choice of ring. whether they choose a classic diamond solitaire to honor traditions, an heirloom ring to include family, or a completely new ring with personal symbolic elements, the most important thing is that the ring truly represent the love, honor, and commitment they will share for many years to come.
general engagement ring symbolism
the first recorded diamond engagement ring was exchanged in 1477 when archduke maximillian presented the token to his betrothed mary of burgundy. prior to that event, engagement rings were either plain metal bands (iron for commoners, while gold and silver were used among royalty) or used less expensive gems. today, solitaires are the most popular choice for many couples, but different gems are growing in popularity.
initially, engagement rings may have represented a portion of a bride's dowry or bride price. not only did the ring advertise the woman's committed status, but the quality of the jewelry indicated the social position and prosperity of her groom.
it is believed that the ancient romans began the practice of placing the engagement ring on the left ring finger, which they believed contained the "vena amoris" or vein of love which supposedly connected directly to the heart. other ancient cultures, including the egyptians, also used such symbolism, and even today the tradition persists both with engagement rings and wedding bands. in fact, wedding bands are placed first on the left ring finger to be closest to the heart.
the circle
engagement rings are ultimately circles of metal, and the circle is a part of very sacred, symbolic geometry. circles have no beginning and no end and thus represent eternity, renewal, wholeness, and perfection. they are also symbolic of the sun, moon, and planets, bringing together all life just as an engagement ring brings together the lives of two people.
the double ring ceremony
during world war ii, when many young men left behind their wives, girlfriends, and fiancées, the practice of a double ring wedding ceremony became widespread in the united states. in a double ring ceremony, both the bride and groom receive wedding rings, whereas earlier traditions only gave a ring to the bride. today, most couples have double wedding ring ceremonies, and the popularity of men's engagement rings is growing to extend that symbolism.
