8mm Hand Braided Gold Wedding Band

The evolution of wedding bands:
 Even the caveman, our forefather, used to bound himself to his mate with a cord of woven rushes as a symbol that their spirits were one.

A diamond cluster ring in the shape of a long pointed oval was popular as an engagement ring during the time of Louis XVI, and remained fashionable for 150 years afterwards.

In Persia, it was customary for a bridegroom to give a ring to everyone who attended the wedding ceremony.

One type of English engagement rings
 was named the "princess ring". It contained three, four or five diamonds in a row, across the top.

1/2 Carat Diamond & Sapphire Ring

Rings with gemstones were popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. The creative gentleman might present his beloved with a gemstone ring where the first letter of the stones within the setting spelled out his name or a word such as, for example, "dearest" (diamond, emerald, amethyst, ruby, epidote, sapphire, turquoise). Medieval wedding rings were often set with colored gemstones, because of the symbolism of the colors.

19. Donnie Darko – "From the opening credits soundtracked by Echo & The Bunnymen’s ‘Killing Moon’, Donnie Darko is packed with gloomy Eighties classics.
