Who Came Up With This Ring Idea, Anyway?... The History of the Engagement Ring
The diamond engagement ring is probably the most universally recognized symbol of love. One of the first groups of people known to use a circle as a symbol for a union between two people who loved each other was the ancient Egyptians. The circle represented eternity, and was made from materials such as bone or metal. In another cultures, a gentleman would offer a gold ring as both his commitment to his bride, as well as partial payment to her family for her hand in marriage. The ring was placed on the left hand because it was believed that the vein to the heart ran from the third finger on this hand. Now isn't that romantic?
