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.
