THE PERFECT RING FOR NURSES

Fun Fun Fun

I’ve Dealt with Numerous Nurses over the course of my time and it’s always been a Fun and Interesting Challenge.

On one Hand, Most Nurses Want to Wear a Ring to Work, but on the other hand, Most Hospitals Won’t Allow it.

The Rings get in the Way

Rings, especially Diamond Rings, tend to get Caught on the Beds, get Knocked around, it’s Hard to put Gloves over them, and Most Importantly, it can Harm, Hurt or Scratch the Patients!

Not Cool!

Still, a lot of Nurses Wear their Rings no matter what. They Love them and Proudly Display them (who wants to put it in a Locker?).

Plus, with many Nurses I know, they want to out do each other with the Size of their Rock.

The Bigger the Better!

Now this may not Apply to all Nurses, but from what I’ve seen, they do LOVE their Diamonds!

The Requirements for what they Want and Need are generally the Same.

They are:

• Low Profile
• Durable
• Smooth

Let’s get into them…

Low Profile

The Ring needs to have a Low Profile to Work the Best. Which means, it needs to Sit as Low as Possible to the Finger so it won’t get Bumped or Hit.

Durable

Just being Low is Not Enough. The Mounting needs to be Heavy Enough and Durable Enough to take a Beating. I Recommend 14k White or Yellow Gold, or even Platinum for Extra Durability. Rings that are Softer like 10k Gold and Silver just won’t last!

Smooth

The Ring should also be as Smooth as Possible or as Plain as Possible. Mountings like this Cathedral Style Mountings are Perfect. They’re Wide, Durable and Help Protect the Center Solitaire Diamond.

Channel Set Bands, like these Anniversary Bands, are Ideal as well. You can order Large Carat Weights of these if you can’t find them in Stores. Most Jewelers carry up to 1.00 Carat, but I’ve ordered in 2.00 and 3.00 Carats before.

They Look Stunning!

One Great Thing about these Mountings is the Fact that there are Few to No Prongs. They have nothing to Snag on or get Caught on. It’s just a Great Mounting that Sits Close to the Finger!

Larger Stones are Problems!

But Sadly, when you’re Dealing with Larger Carat Weight Diamonds, like these 2 and 3 Carats Solitaires, you really can’t get the Head or Prongs Very Low. They have to be Big Enough to Support the Stone!

This is why I Suggest putting the stone in a Basket Head Mounting (Head normally made for Gemstones), that way they will sit as Low as Possible.

Take a look at some Great Examples of Nurses Rings.

These should Plant some Ideas in your Mind of what you want to do…

Rings for Nurses

Now you’ll just have to be Extra Safe with your Ring at Work, and become an Expert at Putting Gloves over your Hands and Rings without Hurting your Ring, Catching the Prongs or Mounting, or Ripping the Rubber.

But Practice Makes Perfect

Just don’t Blame me if you get Caught!

Cheers! :)
