Fashion has proven a thousand times that the new is the well-forgotten old. And this is proved for the thousandth time by the most interesting accessories that have once again become popular - rings on the whole finger.
The world has long been aware of the existence of such jewelry. You can even say more: women of the East wear them from time immemorial, emphasizing their femininity and mystery with original rings. And for them this is not just a fashionable trend - it is a tribute to tradition.
And decoration and amulet
If we are talking about the homeland of the accessory, then it will be worthwhile to emphasize that in the East, not a single decoration will be worn just like that. All of them are there with meaning, including rings on the whole finger. Specifically, these jewelry are used not only as an addition to the costume, but also as a talisman.
In Muslim countries, they attach particular importance to such things. A solid or thin and delicate ring on the whole finger performs the function of an energy shield.
This is especially important in families where conservative customs are still preserved and there is at least the most modest harem. There is always female rivalry, even if the wives have the same conditions and not one is deprived of attention from their master. Everyone is capable of wishing something to their beloved rival. So they are protected from each other than they can. Rings, they say, help maintain peace in the family.
Aggressive and cute. How to change an image using a ring
European fashionistas, choosing a ring on the whole finger, primarily seek to stand out from the crowd, emphasize their extravagance and independence. And since jewelry of this type is divided into aggressive and delicate, the extravagance is different.
Romantic natures who don’t have leather pants and skirts in their wardrobe and even don’t even have to try on “clawed” items. And the essence is not so much in garments - they can be bought at any time. Rough and “witchy” rings on the whole finger will not be in harmony with either a pretty face or with a state of mind.
But if you still want bold experiments, among the models of long rings there is always the opportunity to choose something witchcraft, but milder shapes: a spider on a spider web, for example, or gold plates in the form of fabulous leaves with a diamond drop.
In addition, claw rings are not very practical - you can hook someone or yourself or tear clothes.
Metal. Noble look aristocratic
For the manufacture of finger rings jewelers prefer to use precious metals - gold and silver. Openwork pattern and laconic plates in products made of precious metal look harmonious and very aristocratic.
Of course, there are models of a lower price segment. But they are in most cases metallic. So, the fingers from wearing such jewelry will constantly darken, and the products themselves will soon lose their presentable appearance.
Only in the hands of a true master, metal rings on the fingers can gain a solid look. But there are only a few specialists who are able to make candy out of iron.
Hand in the rings. Side view
Previously, many rings on the hand were considered to be bad manners, but now this is a very fashionable trend, forcing women to be careful in choosing jewelry, monitoring their harmony and correspondence to each other.
The task of fashionistas is very facilitated by the design idea to create entire collections, including not only traditional sets of ring + bracelet + necklace, or ring + earrings + necklace, but also rings on the phalanges of the fingers (a kit that has not yet lost its relevance), and a pair of rings on the whole finger.
A set of two rings connected by a chain or without it looks very impressive on a female hand. There is no hint of bad taste in it, despite the fact that the rings occupy a rather large area.
Rings on the whole finger give the hand grace and sophistication. True, there is a condition for obtaining such an ideal effect: in addition to long rings that are in harmony with each other, there should be no more jewelry on your hand , otherwise it will look too overloaded, and the owner of a rich collection of jewelry will not get anything other than the effect of “market glamor”.
Rings. Clothing. Manicure
And yet only a truly bright personality, who also has enough courage, can afford to put the ring on the whole finger. In addition to all of the above, long rings require impeccable taste from their owner.
First you need to analyze the state of your manicure: long painted nails do not fit under elongated rings. A modest, neat minimalist manicure (jacket or plain pastel varnish) - just right.
Since finger decorations are divided into types, which are already mentioned just above, then the images for them need to be selected appropriate.
A vamp woman with bright makeup, in a leather jacket and jeans, will choose the ring option with an aggressive bias.
A business woman will prefer a strict ring made of noble metal to suit her unchanging office style , and without plates, only plates.
Most elongated rings are in harmony with ethnic style. And it’s not necessary to select clothes with oriental motifs under the ring. Slavic linen sundresses are also suitable.
Selection rules
Before buying original jewelry, each fashionista is worried about two questions: the first one is about whether the finger will be bent in such “armor”, and the second one is about what ring size to choose, because there are several links and each one is designed for a certain part of the finger.
As for bending, there are rings that hold the finger in and rings made of several links that allow the finger to bend.
Now about the size. As a rule, in an elongated ring there are two links intended for putting on a finger. Both are of different sizes, since the lower and upper phalanges differ in volume. When choosing jewelry, you should focus on both, and not just on the top or bottom. The finger should be comfortable, otherwise wearing such a ring in a few days threatens to turn into a torment.
