WHAT TO DO WITH HER ENGAGEMENT RING AFTER THE WEDDING?

The wedding ceremony is over, your honeymoon is behind you, and on your left ring finger is that wedding ring that symbolizes your union with the man or woman you love. However, this person had already given you an engagement ring , a gold jewel with diamonds that you proudly wore for months. But now, what are you going to do with this jewel?


KEEP WEARING YOUR ENGAGEMENT RING EVERY DAY...

Admittedly, you now wear your wedding ring on the ring finger of your left hand. But nothing prevents you from continuing to wear your engagement ring every day. You have several options for this:

  • Move your engagement ring to the ring finger of the right hand
  • Wear engagement ring and ring finger together on the left ring finger, in the order of your choice


These solutions are possible if the jewels agree with each other, whether in terms of style or size of the rings.


… OR PUNCTUALLY

You also have the option of wearing your engagement ring from time to time. Here too, you can put it on the right ring finger or the finger of your choice if your jewel allows it. If you and your spouse are not too strict about social conventions, you can also remove your wedding ring from time to time to replace it with your engagement ring, for an evening, for example.


KEEP YOUR ENGAGEMENT RING SAFE...

Some women prefer not to wear their engagement ring anymore. It is then necessary to keep it safe. Store it in its case, apart from your other jewelry. Thus, diamonds and other precious stones are not likely to be damaged. The gold ring, especially if it is rhodium-plated, will also be perfectly protected if you carefully store your jewel. For more security, especially if your ring is of great value, you can put it in the safe, at the bank for example.


… AND PASS IT ON

Don't lose your engagement ring. First, because you will be sorry for having misplaced such a jewel. Then, because there is a good chance that you will one day want to pass it on. Many women indeed give their engagement ring to one of their children or grandchildren at the time of their own union. This is an opportunity to pass on a family jewel, a part of your heritage and your history.


SELL ​​AN ENGAGEMENT RING

This option is often chosen to take advantage of a piece of jewelery that no longer has sentimental value, for example after a divorce or a breakup. It is also an opportunity to earn money, which can sometimes be necessary. To resell a jewel such as an engagement ring, it is advisable to have the jewel appraised by a professional. Indeed, an engagement ring is often made of precious stones and metals. Its value must therefore be correctly estimated so that you get the best price.


TRANSFORM AN ENGAGEMENT RING

Some jewelers offer to take back your rings to transform them into new jewels. This is also the case for engagement rings. It will be necessary to decant the stones and melt the gold, then create and craft a whole new jewel from these materials.
