The wedding ring in early history

The story of the wedding ring and wedding ring begins long before the present day. And not only our culture around Germany, Austria or Switzerland is relevant, but the origin or history of the partner ring lies in a much more distant region, namely ancient Egypt. Here, the ring was already used in the time of the pharaohs as a symbol of eternity and immortality, so that the bridge to today’s wedding ring or wedding ring is no longer a long one. But not only in Egypt was the metaphor of a ring for infinity felt favorable, the ring was also an important sign for marriage among the ancient Romans and was very popular. But unlike the Egyptians, the Romans changed the material for the wedding ring and also attached another meaning to the wedding ring. While the Egyptians used the wedding ring made of organic material such as reeds or hemp and saw the wedding ring as a sign of infinity, the Romans mostly preferred metal as the material for the wedding ring. In terms of meaning, the partner ring was a sign of strength and existing values for the Romans, which was reflected in the choice of material for the wedding ring. In these times, which were long before the wedding ring configurator we know today, and in which materials such as platinum, silver, palladium, carbon, diamond, zirconia, stainless steel and also titanium as well as yellow gold or rose gold were not yet used for the wedding ring, the wedding ring was worn on the left hand. The Romans were of the opinion that the so-called love vein led directly to the heart from there, which is why the partner ring should also be worn there. This belief has persisted in many societies to this day and the wedding ring made of yellow gold 14 ct is worn in this way.

The church and the wedding ring

In the Middle Ages, the wedding ring came increasingly into the sacred use of the Christian church. Due to the sacrament of marriage, which was established by the church, the ring was increasingly used as a wedding ring, or wedding ring, in order to carry the promise of eternal cohesion visibly on the outside. This was also accompanied by the exchange of rings, i.e. that the married couples also exchanged the partner ring with each other and thus each had to wear a wedding ring on their finger. And the material also changed in the Middle Ages to gold and silver. With the choice of gold and silver materials, the starting signal was given that the wedding ring has been in high demand in terms of preciousness and quality ever since. This has also remained the case with the wedding ring to this day and the wedding ring is not only a personally worn piece of jewelry, but also made in real yellow gold or with diamond, zirconia or another stone a real and special investment that lasts.
