TIPS FOR PURCHASING AN ANNIVERSARY RING

Marking a special wedding anniversary with an anniversary ring is a wonderful tradition that signifies your true commitment and devotion to your spouse. A beautiful anniversary ring is both elegant and timeless. It’s not just a ring, but also a statement of your love.

When it comes to “the right time” to purchase an anniversary ring, there are all kinds of traditions and customs that people may try to impose on you. At Hamra Jewelers, we maintain that it is up to the individual couple as to when and how to choose a meaningful anniversary ring. Here are a few tips we share with our customers that can help you find something special for you and your spouse.

consider your spouse's style

By now, you’ve most likely started to gain an understanding of what your significant other likes when it comes to jewelry. It’s important to choose an anniversary ring that matches their style and taste. As you will want your spouse to wear the ring often, be sure you find something that they are comfortable with.

You wouldn’t want to choose an extravagant ring for someone who would rather have something simple. If you’re not sure what their preferences are, start paying close attention and you’re sure to figure it out.

compliment the wedding ring

Some people would prefer to wear an anniversary ring that is similar to their wedding or engagement ring. If this is the case with your significant other, be sure to keep that in mind with your search.

Look for something with consistent stones and metal types that will complement the wedding ring.

Others would prefer to go in a completely different direction from their wedding ring when it comes to an anniversary ring. Your spouse might like something that is totally unique but has special meaning between the two of you. This might include significant birthstones representing each other or any children that are involved.

You may decide to choose an anniversary ring that features a colored diamond or a gemstone such as a ruby or a sapphire instead. There are no rules that say all anniversary rings should have diamonds.
