Everyday Rings

An everyday ring is one built to be worn daily without a reason: a durable setting, a comfortable profile, and a look that works at a desk as well as a dinner. Diamond bands, signet rings and bezel-set colored stones are the classic examples. The test is simple: if you would put it on without checking the calendar, it is an everyday ring.

Traditionally the pinky of the non-dominant hand, but that rule has relaxed completely. Today women wear signets on the pinky, ring or index finger of either hand, and plenty wear more than one. Pick the finger, not the rule; our goldsmith can size any signet on this page to fit it.

Yes, if the setting is built for it. Bezel-set and low-profile rings handle daily life best, while high-set stones deserve a break during workouts and yard work. Diamonds are hard but not indestructible; it is the setting that usually needs attention. Bought at Perrara, every ring gets a free yearly clean and check, which is how small problems stay small.

A right hand ring is a ring you buy for yourself and wear on your right hand, no proposal involved. The tradition started as a way to mark your own milestones, promotions, birthdays, or a very good Tuesday. Most of this page qualifies. There is no waiting period.
