Purchasing RingsYou need to make sure that when you are purchasing jewelry such as a ring, that you are making an informed decision and considering a style that suits you. It is important that you take into consideration how you are going to wear the ring. To begin, pay attention to the shape of your hands and fingers. You want to look at the length and width of your hand, the roundness or thinness of your fingers, and whether or not they are tapered. These factors will affect how the ring looks on your hand. There are some basic rules to consider. With respect to hand shape - width in a rings setting will add width to your hand and length will add length. Therefore, if you want to diminish the length of your hand choose a wider ring and vice versa. Marquise or oval cuts will pull the eye along the length of the finger. Also, take in to consideration the overall size of your hand. Choose a design that is in proportion to your hand. Larger rings look better on larger hands. When shopping for a ring with more than one stone, then the setting becomes the important factor in determining the overall shape. Related Links
