Reading Time: 8 minutes

What Are Eternity Rings & How To Buy One

Eternity Rings, a new concept in India, are rings made of precious metals like white gold, yellow gold, rose gold, or platinum, and are studded with diamonds all around the circumference. These rings are gifted to mark a special moment in a couple’s life—such as an anniversary or the birth of a child—and are a symbol of eternal love.

In short, eternity rings are fine rings that have a line of diamonds studded throughout the band, symbolising never-ending love

💍 Meaning Of Eternity Rings

An eternity ring has a continuous line of diamonds, representing eternal love and the unbreakable bond between partners. The diamonds have no visible start or end and are also symbolic of forever, given their strength and durability. The hardest known gemstone, diamond, adds another layer of meaning by representing a bond that cannot be destroyed.

🔄 Types Of Eternity Rings

While originally eternity rings were defined by a continuous band of diamonds, modern adaptations have brought two main styles:

Full Eternity Rings

These have diamonds set around the entire band, end to end. They offer a luxurious and continuous sparkle.

Half Eternity Rings

These feature diamonds along only part of the band—usually the top half. They offer more comfort, are typically more affordable, and can be resized.

Metals Used In Eternity Rings

Fine metals like gold, platinum, palladium, and silver are commonly used. However, 18K gold (in yellow, white or rose) and platinum are the most preferred options for eternity rings. When buying, ensure the metal is BIS hallmarked or PGI certified.

⚖️ Full Eternity Ring vs Half Eternity Ring

Choosing between full and half eternity depends on comfort, price, and symbolism.

  • Full eternity rings cannot be resized, might feel slightly uncomfortable due to diamonds pressing against neighboring fingers, but provide a seamless design and require no repositioning.
  • Half eternity rings are easier to maintain, resizable, more budget-friendly, and comfortable to wear. However, they may rotate on the finger, requiring occasional adjustments.

Resizing Eternity Rings

It’s nearly impossible to resize full eternity rings due to diamonds covering the band entirely. If resizing might be necessary in the future, opt for a half eternity ring or a ring with some plain metal on the bottom shank. At KuberBox, we offer free resizing for our customers, provided the adjustment is within 1–2 sizes.

Best Setting For Eternity Rings

The setting greatly impacts comfort and style. Here are some popular options:

  • Bezel Set: Diamonds are encased in metal—safe and smooth.
  • Channel Set: Held between two metal walls—very secure and sleek.
  • Prong Setting: Classic, showcases maximum brilliance.
  • Pave Setting: Ideal for tiny diamonds; creates a ‘line of light’ look.
  • Basket Setting: Individual collets for each stone—preferred for bigger diamonds.
  • Flush Set: Smooth and safe; ideal for full eternity styles.
