Family Rings
Each family is unique and special. Family, or crest rings represent the members of the family and are popular gifts for special occasions. They bring the family together, even when the members live far apart. One can engrave the names of the father, mother, and children on the ring.
In ancient times, kings and lords used both family and crest rings as their personal seals. The top of the ring would have a deep engraving of the family crest which could be used to make an impression in wax.
A family ring can be a simple engraved band or a number of gemstones in matching colors can be mounted in the ring. A popular theme for family rings is to mount a series of stones according to the birthstones of the family members. The available metals are sterling silver, titanium, platinum, white, and yellow gold.
Jewelers die cast or stamp the rings. They can laser-engrave them, or emboss them with 3-D letters. Master goldsmiths work the rings over, providing them with a beautiful finish.
