So who’s wearing right hand rings, and why?
Madonna and Mariah Carey, for starters. And Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce, Julia Roberts, Halle Berry, Janet Jackson, Gwen Stefani, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, Ashanti, Minnie Driver and Eve are just some of the famous women who’ve sported an incredible ring on their right hands.
What does it mean? It depends.
When Richard Burton gave Elizabeth Taylor the 69 carat “Burton-Taylor Diamond” for her 40th birthday, she moved her engagement ring to her right hand and wore both. Why wouldn’t she?
And Jeff Cooper rings aren’t just for getting engaged and married. We see a lot of our eternity bands given as anniversary gifts or push presents. And some of our bolder designs make great statement or cocktail rings to wear on occasion or all the time. This custom design we created would be a perfect right hand ring.
Then there’s the old saying ” the left hand is for thee, the right hand is for me.” For some women, right hand rings are a celebration of independence and happiness. Why wait around to fall in love when you have the means to enjoy yourself now?
While we tend to associate simple solitaire rings with engagements, and minimal platinum or gold bands with wedding rings, there really are no rules. When it comes to right hand rings, just do what you love!
