One such element of sophistication and amazement is Cocktail Rings. Worn in cocktail ceremonies and hi-fi social gatherings, they are symbolic of luxury that needs no introduction. Fancy a Cocktail Ring that is made of 18-karat white gold and encrusted with 214 brilliant-cut white diamonds. Oh, my my….talk of luxury and there is never an end.

Evolution of Cocktail Ring

Defining a cocktail ring is simple yet has a legacy behind it. As per confirmed sources, “A cocktail ring is an overly large ring that is mainly worn at cocktail parties. It became especially popular back in the nineteen forties and nineteen fifties. During this time, cocktail parties were illegal and a ring such as a cocktail ring suggested that not only was one drinking illegally, but she was doing it in style! Although, cocktail parties are less popular now, large cocktail rings are still very popular for dressy or formal occasions such as film premieres, Broadway productions, and award shows.” What a definition, this is.

Cocktail rings ‘were’ as well as ‘are’ constructed from both costume and fine gems/materials.

There are 18K cocktail rings with big stones to take your breath away. Then there are cocktail white gold rings and cocktail yellow gold rings in combination with sparkling diamonds and coloured stones (such as Cocktail Amethyst Rings, Ruby Rings and Emerald Rings) to woo your heart. All in all, this special occasion jewellery is tailor-made for occasions like anniversary, engagement, and even an evening party.

When Buying a Cocktail Ring….

All expensive things need to be bought carefully. Whenever you make up your mind to buy a cocktail ring, first consider what stones they are made of. Normally as has been the trend, the center stone is big. Therefore it makes better sense to go with a synthetic stone that has better clarity. That is because the ones having genuine stones have natural flaws that become more visible because of their size.

Make sure to inspect the construction of the ring. Going by the track record, jewellery pieces often have a weak structure. Avoid rings whose stones are held loosely in the setting. Ask what metals and alloys the ring is made of. Many wearers are allergic to nickel, so don’t buy rings that are made with 10K yellow gold or ones made with white gold that contains nickel.

Last but not the least, most cocktail rings have multiple small stones that are held in place by prongs. But there is a flip side to it. Which is that more the prongs in your ring, higher is the risk element of their bending, breaking and wearing out in the process.

A look at the pros and cons of wearing Cocktail Rings would help you more in their selection and maintenance. After all, beautiful things need to be preserved in order to get lasting value.
