The Latest Jewelry Trend – Promise Rings for Men
Just like wedding bands, engagement rings started as something that was only worn by women. Only after decades – or even centuries – of their existence did they start being worn by men. But among today’s young couples, another trend is starting to take hold – promise rings for men.
After receiving her engagement ring, a woman naturally wants to reciprocate and give her husband-to-be a token of her love. Selecting promise rings for men is something ladies thoroughly enjoy, but I always advise them to find out first how comfortable he is with wearing rings. Most men are pretty receptive to the idea and enjoy receiving a personalized gift. Remember, this ring may be worn on the right ring finger as well as the left.
In case you’ve never heard of promise rings for men, there is no hard and fast rule about what they should look like or when they should be worn. A couple doesn’t need to be engaged for a man to wear one. Sometimes promise rings are exchanged when there is a long-distance serious relationship, or as a pre-engagement gift. They can also be exchanged as purity rings when a couple wants to remain abstinent until marriage. Some women take the “promise” part more literally and purchase engraved rings that spell out a word, such as “Forever” or “Forever Love” but other messages can be written on the inside of the band.
What are some of the most popular promise rings for men?
Looking at the latest collection of men’s promise rings at JustMensRings.com, one that stands out is the titanium flat-topped ring with a single cubic zirconium. This elegant and understated ring has an angular, masculine look with clean lines and just a hint of sparkle.
Another type of ring that is often purchased as a promise ring for men is a two-tone cross puzzle ring. This affordable ring is available in two-tone gold and silver stainless steel or blue and silver stainless steel.
For men of Irish heritage, the most popular promise rings for men are Claddagh rings. In fact, these rings are often worn as a promise ring for women as well. This classic Celtic design depicts two hands holding a crowned heart.
Other ideas for promise rings for men include a polished stainless steel band with the word “Forever” on a black enamel surface plate, and many other fashion rings that can be engraved with a message inside.
When buying promise rings for men, women pay a lot of attention to the inscription, as this conveys the message that the ring symbolizes. While this may be important, the style of the ring should also be considered. Men who wear a lot of black may appreciate a black onyx men’s ring or a black titanium ring with a silver titanium band. Men who like whiter metals may want to wear a cobalt chrome or white tungsten band that is engraved with a special message. As you can see, the selection of <a href=”http://www.justmensrings.com/MENS-WEDDING-BANDS_c_153.html”>promise rings for men</a> is only limited by a woman’s imagination.
