Engagement rings have a very long history that dates back thousands of years. Rings were given in ancient times as not only a token of commitment but also as a way to prove a potential match had the resources to take care of the bride. Over the centuries, many aspects of rings have gained symbolic importance. Although times have changed, the symbolism can still help you to decide on a ring’s designs and components. This blog post is part of a series on engagement ring symbolism I think you might enjoy.
Semi-precious stones in an engagement ring can symbolize love, commitment, and unity in a relationship. Each stone has its own unique meaning. Some have more than one meaning. You can choose one that resonates with your relationship. I enjoy it when a couple uses a traditional diamond as a center stone but accents it one of these stones. So, here are some ideas for you.
Amethyst is said to represents love and devotion. It’s also a stone of peace and clear-headedness. It can symbolize that the couple is entering into the relationship with eyes wide open. Turquoise symbolizes strength and protection and also the ocean, the life bringing water and the beach, a match made in Heaven. Blue Topaz stands for eternal love and loyalty. Onyx is a symbol of strength and protection. Want some more? Citrine is associated with happiness and prosperity. Garnet can symbolize passion.
The most important thing to consider is that your engagement ring is for you and the one you love. It doesn’t end up on anyone else’s finger, right? You should choose something special for you, something with meaning that matters for you. I hope if you need an engagement ring in San Diego that you’ll give me a chance to help you with that.
