What to Know About Eternity Bands

What to Know About Eternity Bands
Author: 
Michael Page

Without the ability to freely travel, or celebrate with parties, major milestones this year are being marked with meaningful pieces of jewelry.

Eternity bands are a popular way to do that, since they are a clear symbol of eternal devotion.

An eternity band is a ring that features stones going all the way around. Typically these will be diamonds, in a variety of shapes, or a combination of diamonds and sapphires, rubies, or another gemstone.

Often times you’ll hear these called ‘stacking rings,’ since you can easily wear multiple together, each signifying a momentous occasion.

Eternity bands are a promise that love lasts forever, like the endless stones on each ring. While these bands are most popular for wedding bands, or anniversary bands, others use a band to mark the arrival of a new baby, or even in place of a traditional engagement ring.

If you’re thinking about purchasing an eternity band, here are a few things to consider.

Why People Choose an Eternity Band

-With stones that go all the way around, you see lots of sparkle.
-Even if your ring spins, you’ll always see stones. This is particularly helpful during the winter, when rings tend to fit looser.
-The bands are a symbol of eternal love.

Things to Think About

-There is a higher cost associated with eternity bands in many cases, because stones go all the way around.
-Eternity bands cannot be sized, because the stones go around the entire ring.
-With those stones going all the way around, eternity bands should be inspected often to ensure prongs and stones are secure. A channel set eternity band, which features metal on either side of the band, tend to be more secure than a prong-set band.
