The Perfect Fit
Call the engagement ring industry a scam if you will, but couples have been exchanging rings for at least the past 3,000 years. The ancient Egyptians were the first to attach the idea of eternity to the circle-shaped accessories because they have no beginning and no end. We hope our marriages are the same.
Ancient Egyptians were also responsible for the old tradition of wearing your wedding ring on the fourth finger of your left hand because they believed that finger had a vein that traveled to the heart. Nowadays, we know that to be anatomically incorrect, but we keep doing it because it sounds as sweet as this husband who is happy his wife’s ring fits inside his.
