Buy a Cocktail Ring: Extravagant & Eye-Catching
Cocktail Ring: The Most Glamorous Ring in the World
Buying a cocktail ring – that's a decision for pure opulence. The cocktail ring is large, eye-catching, and unapologetically glamorous. Invented in the Roaring Twenties, it is now a popular luxury accessory for bold women.
History of the Cocktail Ring
The cocktail ring originated in the 1920s in the USA. During Prohibition, alcohol parties were illegal – as a protest, women wore large, striking rings that violated the etiquette rules of the time. The ring became a symbol of female independence and a dazzling life.
What is a Cocktail Ring?
A cocktail ring is characterized by:
- Oversized stone or group of stones in the center
- Often worn on the right hand (not on the engagement ring finger)
- No specific shape – round, angular, asymmetrical, or sculptural
- A statement piece par excellence
Popular Stones for Cocktail Rings
- Large amethyst in white gold
- Oval ruby in yellow gold with diamond frame
- Blue topaz or sapphire – dramatic and regal
- Black diamond – modern and dramatic
- Several different stones in an asymmetrical design
When and How to Wear a Cocktail Ring?
- Evening events, galas, dinners
- As the only statement ring – keep all other jewelry subtle
- Also boldly worn during the day with a simple outfit for contrast
Styling a Cocktail Ring
A cocktail ring is always the dominant piece in the look. Matching it: simple stud earrings or small hoop earrings, no bracelet on the same hand, no other necklace. The ring speaks for itself.
