An engagement ring is a ring given to a woman by a man to signify their “engagement,” or their intention to get married. The engagement ring is typically worn by the woman on the ring finger of her left hand, throughout the period of engagement. The engagement ring includes: a precious metal band that goes around the finger, usually made of silver, gold, or platinum; the setting, which is the part of the ring that holds the stone; and the stone itself, which is the most significant part of the engagement ring. Engagement rings usually have bigger stones than the usual rings. Diamonds are still the most popular stone preferred, but other precious stones are also gaining appeal, such as rubies and emeralds. Traditional engagement rings usually have a pronged setting, others are more embedded on the setting.
