Diamond Eternity & Anniversary Rings

Not exactly. While both can be gifted on anniversaries, anniversary rings come in a variety of styles and don’t always feature diamonds all the way around. A diamond eternity band, by definition, includes a continuous line of stones, symbolising unending love.

In Australia, an eternity ring is given on a significant anniversary (often the first or tenth) or to celebrate a meaningful moment like the birth of a child. But there are no rules. Many give or receive eternity rings simply to mark a shared moment of love.

Most people wear their eternity ring on the same finger as their engagement and wedding rings: the third finger of the left hand. However, it can also be worn on the right hand depending on personal preference or cultural tradition.

The carat weight of an eternity ring is a matter of personal preference and budget, with options ranging from delicate 0.25 carats to substantial 5 carats or more. There's no "right" carat weight. It all comes down to your desired look, the diamond shape, and your budget.

Traditionally, eternity rings are worn alongside engagement rings and wedding rings, not as a replacement. However, some people choose to wear an eternity ring in place of an engagement ring, especially if they prefer a more low-profile or symbolic style. It all comes down to personal preference and what feels most meaningful to you.
