Rachel Leigh is one of the designers who create these vintage looking cocktail womens rings. Her designs are usually a polished, colored resin gumball center set in gold plated metal. AuLait is a creamy coffee color, or there is Martini green, Tomato red and Shark gray/black. Or her Neon Pop range of gumball rings are available in five neon bright colors. One of her rings will cost around $70 to $80.

Hovey Lee’s eco cocktail gumball rings are different in that they use recycled, wrapped gun metal wire for the settings and cultured pearls or balls of polished rose quartz and green agate for the gumballs. These are not only beautiful and highly fashionable womens rings but they are eco-friendly too! These are priced around $50, which is very reasonable as they contain genuine semi-precious stones.

Cocktail womens rings are seen everywhere at the moment, and the bigger the better. If you want to shop online emitations.com has some fabulous big glitzy rings. Their “In the Pink” ring is not quite up to Mariah Carey’s $2.5 million pink diamond engagement ring, but it’s as close as most of us are likely to get. Whereas, Jillian’s Black Estate Ring is far larger than Carmen Electra’s black diamond solitaire. Padma’s purple cocktail ring also from emitations is gorgeous enough to make you feel and look like a celebrity.

Betsey Johnson rings available from regencies.com are wonderful, frivolous, unusual pieces of costume jewelry at a bargain price. Her taxi girl zebra heart ring set with crystals is a huge eye-catcher and what cat lover could resist the vintage Vicky kitty ring which looks like an antique Victorian ring but with a central cute black kitty on a pink background. While you are there also check out her fabulous necklaces, bracelets and earrings.

One place you may not have thought of looking for womens rings is Amazon.com. If you haven’t had a look there you are missing out as they have a huge variety of rings at incredible prices. At the moment a huge 16 carat genuine citrine ring set in sterling silver by Bronze Lily is just $160 and a beautiful pink 17 carat rose quartz also in sterling silver is $155. These prices are amazing for fine jewelry, genuine gemstones and real silver. Of course if you want to really splash the cash or if you want a really special gift then Bronze Lily’s 18k yellow gold, platinum, diamond and blue topaz cocktail ring and matching pendant is $3,500 but looks a million dollars.

Womens rings don’t have to be boring, there is such a variety on the market from $2 to $2 million that there will be a ring to suit every woman and once you get used to wearing them, your hands look naked without them!

Today one of the most important factors when buying a ring, and one that is often neglected by the man doing the purchasing, is the size of the ring. By that I do not mean the number of carats contained in the gemstones but the dimensions of the finger that the ring is to fit. Buying an inappropriately sized ring can lead to complications. If the ring is too small it will either be forced on and be extremely difficult to remove or it will never be worn. Sizing a ring to make it larger involves stretching the metal which makes it thinner and should never be done for more than a size or two with precious metals such as gold and platinum.

If the ring is too large it will need to have a piece cut out of the band which can be done by a competent jeweler but again is not advisable for more than one or two sizes. Better by far to get the ring in the correct size in the first place. The average or standard size for most ladies rings is 6.75 or 7.00. If you are unsure what size to buy you could ask the lady outright or most jewelry stores will give you a ring size measure that you can compare to any existing rings.

Next you will need to know whether the lady prefers yellow or white metal as a gift of a ring in the wrong color metal will not be loved, no matter how much it is appreciated. Although some women will wear any color, most will have a clear preference for either white metal, such as sterling silver, white gold or platinum or yellow metal such as gold. It is normally easy to discover this by just looking at the jewelry the woman already wears, but be careful in case she always wears silver as that is all she can afford, but she would secretly love to wear yellow gold.

Traditionally the first gift of a ladies ring would signify an engagement. Then follows the wedding ring, an eternity ring on the birth of the first child and various rings to coincide with anniversaries, including pearl and ruby. You can give diamonds for any anniversary or occasion although it is supposed to be the birthstone for April and to have a diamond wedding anniversary you would have to be married for 60 years. Each landmark anniversary does have a particular material connected with it. Likewise each month of the year has a birthstone so the gift of a ladies ring on a birthday would be particularly appropriate if it features the birthstone of the recipient.
