Many people think this…<\/h2>\n

\nThey want to get an anniversary ring with the exact amount of diamonds per year<\/strong> they’re celebrating…<\/p>\n

\n(You can’t blame them for trying)<\/p>\n

\nFor example, on an 8th wedding anniversary<\/strong>, they want 8 diamonds<\/strong> in the ring. Or 14th anniversary; 14 stones.<\/p>\n

\nThis sounds great, and sometimes it works out perfectly<\/strong> (lucky)…<\/p>\n

But often that’s not the case<\/h2>\n

\nThat’s not how rings are designed (unless you custom design<\/a> one).<\/p>\n

\nMost rings are created with style<\/strong>, rhythm, flow <\/strong>and design… not for an appropriate number of stones in mind.<\/p>\n

\nFor if it was your 27th anniversary, you’d have a difficult task of finding one ring with exactly 27 diamonds.<\/p>\n

\nMost anniversary bands hold a certain amount of pre-set stones<\/strong> (usually odd amounts, like 5 <\/strong>stones, 9<\/strong> stones, 11<\/strong>…)<\/p>\n

\n\"Diamonds<\/p>\n

\nEternity rings<\/a> are different types of anniversary bands. With eternity rings the diamonds go all the way around the ring<\/strong>, in a never-ending row of diamonds (an eternity<\/strong>). The amount of diamonds and carat weight will vary depending on your ring size<\/strong>. A ring size 4.5 will only hold so many stones. Whereas a ring size 11 will hold a ton more.<\/p>\n

\n\"Eternity<\/a><\/p>\n

\nAll these styles are pretty common, smooth, sleek, balanced, and most can be worn up against your wedding rings<\/strong> (on the outside of your fingers-the wedding ring sits closest to the heart).<\/p>\n

\nAnd bigger, wider, elaborate anniversary rings can hold much more diamonds, channels, prong-set stones, flush settings, baskets… as well as other gemstones like Sapphire, Ruby, Emerald<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\nSo it’s not the number of years that gets the exact amount of diamonds… But it’s usually (traditionally<\/strong>) the year itself<\/strong> that gets the grand prize. The actual year (like 3rd, 7th, 21st<\/strong>…) dictates what that appropriate gift will be. <\/p>\n

\nFor example, the 14th wedding anniversary<\/strong> is supposed to receive:<\/p>\n

Ivory, Gold Jewelry, Watches, Agate, Alexandrite, Bloodstone, Orchid, Opal, Emerald, Daffodil.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n(even though diamond really does work best for any anniversary<\/strong> year)<\/p>\n
