That may be all the things we know about rings, but to the history of ring perhaps we are not particularly clear, so now I will make a brief introduction.
In China, the ancient palace, the rings have been used for at least 2,000 years. In the Qin dynasty, rings had already been widely used as a simple accessory. Ring has been the most popular piece of jewelry for a long time. The rings are charactered for antiquity, utility and symbolic. It became popular in the medieval period. At that time all classes of people can wear rings. It wasn't until around the 14th century that faceted jewel appeared in rings. Rings were extremely popular among the Romans. Of course, at that time there were some rules in the fashion of rings which were strictly observed. During the renaissance, people pay much attention to the quantity, which was regarded as a desirable asset. People not only wore three rings on each finger, but sometimes all over on chains. In the eighteenth century rings were worn simply for beauty. They became the vogue, especially after the development of the marquise setting. This gave the jeweler the opportunity to set in the bezel large cameos of Wedgwood, jasper gemstone and rare clusters of diamonds arranged in oval or oblong shapes.
All above is the history of the ring, a history of rings and also the history of the development.
