On the left or on the right?

The story is certainly not unambiguous. Have you ever heard of the so-called love vein? In ancient times, it was believed that this vena amoris connects the ring finger of the left hand with the heart, which, as we all know, is the main symbol of love. And where else should a wedding ring be worn?

Although we know today that this theory was wrong from an anatomical point of view, in many countries, as well as here in the Czech Republic, this tradition has been preserved until today, when most couples wear a wedding ring on the ring finger of their left hand. This is the case in many countries, for example in France, Portugal, Canada and Great Britain.

As always, there are exceptions to the rule, and there are many of them. For example, in Germany, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, India and many other countries, newlyweds put their wedding rings on their right ring finger.

There are even states where the wedding ring is given before the wedding during the engagement and has its place first on the right hand. Only during the wedding ceremony is the jewel moved to the fourth finger of the left hand. Romania, Turkey and Brazil are good examples.

What about the engagement ring after the wedding?

This is a question that most newlyweds ask themselves, so let's find out the answer. Even after the wedding, you don't have to put the engagement ring in the jewellery box. On the contrary, you can beautifully combine the jewellery together or proudly match it with everyday outfits, no matter what location you choose for it.

Many women divide the rings so that the wedding ring remains on the left ring finger and the engagement ring moves to the right.

But more and more ladies are wearing their wedding and engagement rings on the same finger at the same time. When both jewels are together, they enhance the charming impression and often become unmissable. If you wish to have both pieces of jewellery on one finger, think about the fact that both pieces of jewellery match each other after the celebration of love. Engagement sets that are designed to match each other perfectly can make your choice easier.

MIALIS TIP: If you don't really like traditions, we recommend wearing your wedding and engagement rings exactly where your heart desires. Whether you choose left or right, ring or index finger, it is important that you get used to your jewellery so much that you don't want to take it off.
