ETERNITY RINGS IN HISTORY
Eternity rings are believed to have been in existence for a far greater time than wedding or engagement rings. This is because they are not used for a specific occasion but to highlight importance and love between those receiving and giving an eternity band. With records dating back to the Egyptians, eternity rings have from then until now come in the form of solid rings or have been embedded with diamonds. A style that we specialise in, here at Voltaire. The diamonds and precious stones are chosen often to symbolise, unity, love and appreciation to the recipient. Stones and diamonds can be chosen to match the styles and character of the individual or to highlight a special period in your life.

DIAMONDS FOR ETERNITY RINGS & WEDDING RINGS
Diamonds are the most popular choice for all important rings due to their beauty, uniqueness, design and colouration. An endurance that can also represent your love to the recipient. If you have bought a diamond engagement or wedding ring you will understand the importance of the diamond cuts, size and shape. For eternity rings there are several staple cuts that are prominent and popular.
- Round brilliant diamonds are commonly found in eternity rings. The most popular of diamond shapes, round brilliant stones provide the amplest light refraction. Often a centrepiece of engagement rings, round brilliants are set within wedding and eternity rings.
- Princess cut diamonds have a square shape. These are used in diamond eternity rings because they can be set close together, forming an almost seamless band of brilliant light across the finger. Ideal for those who love the sparkle of the diamond but wish for a more conservative look.
- Baguette diamond eternity rings can also contain brilliant round diamonds for a band with the vintage-inspired appeal. The Baguette cut is one of the most popular here at Voltaire and one we often recommend to our customers.

It adds beauty and connection between the rings. Of course, this may not always be possible, but there are other options that up you can choose from.
