Promise rings are rising in popularity and are given between couples as a symbol of trust and commitment. A promise ring symbolises many different things to different people, for some it is a placeholder for an engagement ring, for others, it is simply a token of dedication. Promise rings are gifted at all stages of a relationship, from anniversaries to birthdays, to spontaneous, 'just because' gifts - no matter the occasion, they are a thoughtful and meaningful present for a couple.
Promise rings, while extremely popular right now, date back hundreds of years ago to the early Roman Empire, where they were used by men to 'claim' women. Obviously the meaning of the ring has evolved throughout time and today is seen as a romantic and sweet token of love.
One of our favourite things about promise rings is that they are completely personalised and individual to the couple. What they look like, what they symbolise and how much they cost is entirely up to you! Typically, promise rings are exchanged between younger couples who do not have the means to invest in an expensive engagement ring.
We think that a promise ring is a great opportunity to express your personal style and individuality. Whether you are more extravagant and looking for a pop of colour in a gemstone ring, or want to keep it classic with a diamond ring, there are endless options when it comes to finding the perfect promise ring.
Overview:
Gemstone Promise Rings
Gemstone promise rings are a great option because they are typically affordable, fashionable, on-trend and come in a variety of styles and colours.

Gemstone rings come in various stones such as amethyst rings, morganite rings, sapphire rings, emerald rings and many more. The vivid pop of colour of a wonderful gemstone is what you could have been missing this whole time.

Silver Promise Rings
Sterling silver is a great option for a promise ring because it is affordable, yet durable and shiny. Nothing beats the wonderful reflections of sterling silver, and not only that, but it is actually more tough and hypoallergenic than white gold. With a sterling silver ring, you can usually get a more expensive stone at a fraction of the price, which is a great idea if you are after a quality cubic zirconia or a precious stone like ruby or emerald.
For those who are adamant about a traditional diamond ring, sterling silver can make this dream come true! By choosing sterling silver as the metal for your promise ring, you can more easily afford the sparkly stone that you desire.
Not only is sterling silver beautiful and practical, but it also has a lovely symbolism attached to it. Silver is said to bring the wearer patience and perseverance, as well as balance and protection. These values are especially ideal for a promise ring and embody the meaning of the ring.
