Rings have been used as symbols of commitment for centuries, and recently, they have been rising again in popularity between young couples. You have probably heard of young couples proposing or exchanging promise rings as a sign of dedication to each other. Promise rings have different meanings to different people, hence, you can make them mean anything that you desire!

While it is common for couples to exchange promise rings before an engagement, there is nothing to say that you can't get your best friend one! The overall consensus when it comes to promise rings is that they symbolise love, commitment, friendship, loyalty and dedication - all qualities that you want to show not only in your romantic relationships, but also your friendships!

Giving your best friend a promise ring can be a thoughtful and personal gesture of love, that they are sure to adore. This tradition is becoming more and more common between the bestest of friends. Remember the matching necklaces and bracelets that you would exchange between your friends when you were a kid? - well a promise ring is simply a reinvented friendship bracelet, a token of love between adult friends. 

What Does a Promise Ring Look Like?

The best thing about promise rings is that they are completely ambiguous. There is no right or wrong way to wear one. However, it is more common that these rings are less expensive, and typically have an essence of character that really reflects your personality.

Whether you typically wear gold rings, white gold or silver rings, do not worry, because there are lots of amazing choices out there to choose from. If you are looking for something more simple and minimalistic, nothing beats the finish of a round ring or oval ring that really does suit anyone's style. For more of a statement piece, or dress ring, why not go for a square ring or pear ring, which has a touch more alternative edge.

Where Should You Wear a Friendship Ring?

Really, you can wear a ring on any finger you would like to. Traditionally, however, a friendship ring is worn on the ring finger or index finger of the right hand. You can wear it on its own, or even wear it as part of a ring stack, the opportunities are endless. 

A promise ring is not just for romantic couples, but they can also be given to your closest friends. A thoughtful symbol of love and commitment, a promise ring is a great way to tell someone just how much you love them. Too often our friendships are not given the recognition that they deserve, which is what makes this gesture even more special.
