What is the difference between an engagement ring and a wedding ring?
An engagement ring is traditionally given during a proposal, symbolising a promise to marry. A wedding ring, on the other hand, is exchanged during the wedding ceremony and represents the couple’s commitment to each other.
What metals are commonly used in rings?
Popular metals used in rings include gold (yellow, white, and rose), platinum, palladium, and silver. Each metal has different properties, such as durability, weight, and colour, making them suitable for different styles of rings.
How do I find out my ring size?
You can measure your ring size by using a ring sizer. Chisholm Hunter staff in-store will be able to assist you in working out your ring size.
What is an eternity ring?
An eternity ring is a symbol of everlasting love and is often given on a significant anniversary or occasion. The ring typically features a continuous line of identical gemstones, usually diamonds, set around the band.
How do I care for my ring?
To care for your ring, clean it regularly with warm soapy water and a soft brush. Avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals, and store it in a jewellery box or pouch to prevent scratches.
Can rings be resized?
Yes, most rings can be resized, but it depends on the design and material. Rings with intricate settings or certain metals like titanium can be more challenging to resize.
What is the best metal for a wedding ring?
The best metal for a wedding ring depends on personal preference and lifestyle. Platinum is popular for its durability and hypoallergenic properties, while gold offers a classic look in different shades like yellow, white, and rose.
What are promise rings and what do they symbolise?
Promise rings represent a commitment between two people and are often given in a romantic relationship as a sign of devotion or intent to marry in the future. They are a meaningful but less formal alternative to engagement rings.
What gemstones are commonly used in rings?
Diamonds are the most common gemstones used in rings, especially for engagement and wedding bands. Other popular gemstones include sapphires, rubies, emeralds, and semi-precious stones like amethyst and aquamarine.
