What is a Right Hand Ring?
The Right-Hand Ring is a singular ring or ring set worn on the right hand ring finger, symbolizing independence, self love, a personal milestone, or whatever reason you so please, unrelated to an engagement with a partner. A way to challenge societal norms centered around how fine jewelry is worn and received, Right-Hand Rings are typically characterized by a self purchase, however they are often given by a loved one to celebrate a milestone, birthday, or anniversary.
In recorded history, Right-Hand Rings were first deemed significant in the 1920’s prohibition era as a symbol of women’s financial independence, as more women entered the workforce than previous generations. Women of this era experimented with shorter hair, shorter skirts, and used fashion to flaunt their desires to color outside the lines of society of the time, which included attending speakeasies and cocktail parties unaccompanied. These women adorned their right hands on nights out with large gemstone and diamond rings to symbolize their rejection of traditional societal expectations, and thus the Cocktail Ring was born, a symbol of financial self-sufficiency, rebellion, and the joy of getting dressed to get a drink. This trend of women’s empowerment via adornment was followed by mid-century Hollywood icons Elizebeth Taylor and Natalie Wood, who were (and still are!) very well known for their jewelry collections, many of which included self-purchased gems and Fine Jewelry rarities.
What Are The Best Ring Types and Styles for a Right Hand Ring?
There are no rules for the type of ring worn on the right hand-ring finger, they can range from gemstone rings stacked with diamond bands to rings that are traditionally used as engagement rings. Diamonds and gemstones are both suitable and loved for Right-Hand Rings, as well as stacks of Nesting Bands. Discover Right-Hand Rings by Anna Sheffield to get inspired.
