Is there a specific "25 year anniversary" ring?

[pedromt]

My father''s asked for my help in finding a ring for my mother for their 25th year. He was impressed w/ my work on my now-wife''s engagement ring after I frequented these forums and learned all there is to know more than 2 years ago now

So I''m back, to ask the experts. 25 year anniversary... what to do?

 

[pedromt]

Sorry if that wasn''t very clear.

I''m wondering if there''s a specific setting generally used for 25 year anniversaries?

Ooh, Pedromt, I know of one that'd be perfect! Well, I'm in love with it.

I think 3 stone rings are considered appropriate anniversary rings (as well as engagement rings) as they symbolize "past, present and future". Another option would be a gorgeous eternity band, like this:

Any of this sounding good?

 

[pedromt]

sure it sounds good

there''s nothing set in stone saying a 25 year band HAS to be this or anything then?

There is no specific ring for a 25th anniversary that I know of. You can pretty much do what ever you want. Some people want an upgrade, or a RHR. Many opt for a nice eternity band. No rules really. What do you think your mom would want??

 

[pedromt]

something shiny

I think an eternity band or a 7-stone setting might be a nice fit for her. Time to crunch out rocks of Goodoldgold, abazias & whiteflash again it looks like!

Are those all still Pricescope approved vendors?

Also check out another PS vendor, www.signedpieces.com I got my eternity band from them. They also have half eternity bands as well.

HEE HEE. a specific 25 year anniversary ring? A BIG ONE!!!

Haha just kidding. That''s just me.

Something like a 3 stone or an eternity band that can be worn on it''s own (aka higher caratage) or maybe a vintage type right hand ring...the possibilities are endless! What does she like?

I don''t think that there is a specific 25th year ring. I know that silver is the traditional gift but that is not about jewelry.

I think an anniversary or eternity ring is always a nice choice. Maybe your dad should try to get an idea as to whether your mom would prefer a right hand ring, or something like an anniversary ring that she could wear with her wedding set.

What does her wedding set look like? Does she wear one?

I had this made for our 25th. I love it!
