Hello, Mama B here.
Wedding rings have transformed throughout time. They have evolved from various materials to metals and semi precious stones. The diamond appeared in the 15th century.
Some thought the diamond wedding band was decadent. Pilgrims exchanged thimbles! Currently couples exchange matching diamond wedding bands, forgetting the engagement ring altogether. The diamond wedding band is the most popular piece of diamond jewelry available. It seems to be the ultimate symbol of lasting love.
