The eternity ring gets its name because it combines two of the most meaningful pieces of eternal love symbolism surrounding the wedding ring. The first, that the circle of circle symbolizes eternity because it has no beginning and no end, and the second, the idea that diamonds are forever, meet to result in these rings, formed by a full circle of diamonds or other gems in the setting of your choice.
Eternity rings can be seen in a number of styles and settings in order to provide eternity rings for every customer's style and taste. These setting styles and methods include: shared prong, single prong, bar setting, u shape, channel setting, pave, four prong, bezel, and micro pave.
Eternity bands are sometimes difficult to make, as they are most often sold by total carat weight and thus limited to an exact stone size to form the right size circle for each different wearer's finger. Caring for eternity rings can be done at home to a degree-- most jewelry benefits from a simple soap and water rinse now and then, but to remove heavy dirt and oil buildup or tarnish, you should take your eternity rings to a jeweler for safe, proper maintenance.
Maintenance of your eternity ring should be handled with extreme care-never attempt to secure, remove, or replace stones yourself, or clean your ring with harsh chemical solutions. All service that may affect the structural integrity of your eternity setting should be done by a professional jeweler-preferably someone on the staff of the retailer from which the ring was purchased. Likewise, if your ring requires a thorough cleaning it's best to take it to a professional, but to remove light buildup and restore shine between professional cleanings, it's safe to wash your eternity ring with liquid soap and a soft cloth.
The eternity ring, formed by making a solid circle of gems around the band, can be created in many ways. An assortment of settings as radically different as the single prong, shared prong, and pave styles can be found, and very old gem setting technique such as channel setting and bezel setting lends themselves well to this style.
