Symbolism and Identifier jewellery

2016 CAD Ring Rendering |
In my first year of B.Tech, I had started off the year by
doing several CAD designs of the various types of bridal jewellery which a
bride required. Amongst those pieces I had made several wedding rings. In most
cultures of today, a wedding ring has come to be a significant symbol of either
love, or the most obvious that the person who is wearing it is married and thus
no longer available. Regardless of this, the wedding ring is yet still a
personal thing, which also reveals a lot about the wearer, from their taste to
their financial status, even if it’s not the true reflection at times, as
people could buy an expensive ring so as to portray a reality which they want
people to perceive about them. Nonetheless, through my research I have found
that a majority of older African women seem to have the idea that the more rings
(example a wedding set of rings) which a women wears hold ore dignity or something
along those lines. Whereas in the western culture and the young modern
generation tends to opt for a solitaire or a single cluster ring. This preference
is revealed on the finger through the wedding ring.
