Antique Diamond Engagement Ring

There are early records out there of the antique diamond engagement ring. The earliest engagement ring that was ever given was in 1477. The Archduke Maximillian of Hamburg gave it to Mary of Burgundy. This ring was set with an antique-cut diamond. These rings were called Art Deco. They were originally mounted with sapphires, emeralds and rubies. In addition, they were always worn on the third finger, on the left hand. This was originally a Roman custom and was named a “betrothal” ring which means truth.
The Variety in Sterling Silver Jewelry
The jewelry market showcases a horde of sterling silver jewelry in the form of bracelets, earrings, rings and much more. You can also find a pleasing range of sterling silver bracelets blended with yellow gold to create trendy designs. In fact jewelry lovers, who run low on budget, opt for sterling silver and yellow gold bracelets as it is an inexpensive option when compared to white gold and yellow gold bracelets.
With time, silver may be prone to tarnish or corrode. Thus it is absolutely important to take good care of your silver jewelry to help it shine forever. Regular polishing and cleaning of the tarnish will help avoid rust and scratches.
