How to Select an Eternity Engagement Ring

Eternity rings are a symbol of love and marriage.

The eternity ring is a simple, modern ring with a row of small diamonds set in the ring, flush with the surface of the ring. They are used to symbolize love and marriage at many stages, from engagement to anniversaries. When electing an eternity band, carefully consider the place of selection and style of eternity ring.

Instructions

1. Select the jeweler. Research local jewelers, and ask people you know who have bought diamond jewelry where they recommend. Check with the better business bureau to see if the businesses you are considering have any complaints. Ask each business if lifetime cleaning and care is included.

2. Choose the metal. Platinum and gold are both popular choices. Consider what your fiance may prefer and what is in your price range. If choosing gold, the higher karat will have more clarity and a higher gold percentage. Also decide whether you are looking for white or yellow gold.

3. Choose the eternity length. Eternity bands are available in half and full sizes. Half eternity bands display diamonds on half of the band. These are significantly less expensive and can be more comfortable than the full sized band. The full sized eternity band will always display the diamonds, even when the band moves around the finger.
