The History and Tradition of Engagement Rings
Engagement rings have been a symbol of love and commitment for centuries. The tradition dates back to ancient Egypt, where couples exchanged rings made from braided reeds as a token of their eternal love. In the Roman Empire, rings were often made of iron, signifying strength and permanence.
The diamond engagement ring as we know it today was popularized by Archduke Maximilian of Austria in 1477 when he proposed to Mary of Burgundy with a ring set with diamonds in the shape of an ‘M’. This set a trend among European aristocracy that continues to this day.
