A ring is an intimate gift with deep personal meaning, signifying a bond between the giver and the recipient. If you’re shopping for a sentimental ring, Abbott Lyon has a range of beautiful designs to help you spoil your friends, family or partner.

The Symbolism of a Ring

Rings are a powerful symbol of love and devotion, and they’re not just reserved for romantic relationships – they can also make a statement about family love or deep friendship. The unbroken circle of a ring represents constant, steadfast commitment and trust, which is something we value in all our most important relationships.

Did you know? Rings can have different meanings depending on which finger you wear them on. In Western culture, the ring finger is traditionally reserved for engagement and wedding rings, but what do the other fingers symbolise?

• Index finger: Confidence, ambition and leadership
• Middle finger: Balance and introspection
• Pinkie: Intuition and intelligence
• Thumb: Individuality and self-expression
