Frequently Asked Questions
What finger does an engagement ring go on?
In the UK and many Western cultures, the engagement ring is traditionally worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, often referred to as the "ring finger." This tradition stems from the belief that this finger contains the "Vena Amoris" or vein of love.
How to wear a wedding ring and engagement ring together?
Traditionally, the wedding ring is placed on the finger first (closest to the heart), followed by the engagement ring.
What should I think about when picking an engagement ring?
Design is one of the most important things when picking an engagement ring. There should be a balance between diamond size and band width. Also where possible try and ensure your engagement ring is wedfit. This will allow a wedding ring to sit flush against the engagement ring. At Avita each ring is made with the thought of the centre diamond and how a wedding ring will look next to it.
