What exactly is an eternity ring?

A perfect eternity band

One very popular item we sell in our store is eternity rings...

What exactly is an eternity ring?

Let's talk about eternity rings/bands. An ultimate symbol of never ending love, this concept was created in 1960's by De Beers. The name comes from its design where the diamonds go all around in a continuous pattern. People usually buy this ring as a wedding band or an anniversary ring or with one of our customer's own words, a "bye-bye ring". She says that she loves eternity rings because when she waves goodbye, she can still show off her gorgeous diamonds!  

Some girls are very superstitious about their wedding bands. They like the design and the diamonds to be continuous all the way around, without any gaps, because they believe it will foreshadow their marriage. A second reason for this popular style is that rings always turn on the finger. It gets really annoying seeing the metal on top and the diamonds in the palm of your hand and having to fix it all day.  This is usually the biggest reason why girls love these rings.

One thing you should watch out about the eternity rings is that you need to be extra careful with how you are wearing them, since the diamonds and the prongs go all around, there are more chances to damage the ring. For example we would never recommend to go to the gym, lifting heavy things, gardening, or slapping your husband in the face (No, we never recommend this under any condition!) wearing your ring.

PLEASE be careful with your diamonds. These rings need to be checked periodically which is a service we give in the store every Friday and Saturday. We recommend our customers to have their prongs checked and tightened every three months.

Eternity rings, are like shoes.You can find many beautiful shoes in stores but not all are comfortable to wear, making you regret the purchase, or they are not made with high quality materials and craftsmanship, so it breaks down. Same things apply to these bands. First thing you should pay attention to when buying an eternity band is the quality of the setting. The prongs should be strong enough to support the diamonds and the setting should be what we call "low-profile." The height of the ring should be almost equal to the dept of the diamond, in other words the diamond should be as close as possible to your finger so that when you close your fingers, it wont bulge out and be uncomfortable.

Here is an example of a "high-profile" eternity band. 

And here is a "low-profile" eternity band that fits just right and lets you close your fingers comfortably.

The second thing to pay attention to is the prongs to be strong and substantial enough to hold the diamonds securely without looking chunky and overwhelming.

When we create our eternity bands we hand-select the diamonds and make sure that they match perfectly in color and quality. The diameter of the diamonds must be almost the same so that they look beautifully uniformed. Our designer, master setter but most importantly my brother Gary Azatyan selects the perfect diamonds then Dad (George Azatyan) custom-designs the setting using the measurements of each diamond. Once that's done, the setting is given to Gary to put the diamonds in and finish all the fine tuning. Every time we create a beautiful and well made piece of jewelry, it is a very proud moment for us!
