engagement rings

Promise to marry

Engagement rings are rings given as tokens of a marriage proposal, typically featuring a diamond or other gemstone.

The tradition of diamond engagement rings became widespread in the 20th century through marketing campaigns.

The ring is usually worn on the left ring finger: He got down on one knee and presented the engagement ring.

After marriage, it's often worn alongside the wedding band.
