Should I Give an Antique Engagement Ring?


 
Business
We have all heard about having Grandma's antique engagement ring sitting around the house and a lot of us actually have inherited one. They make for great keepsakes, but they are also something of considerable value. But if you are planning on asking the woman of your dreams to spend the rest of her life with you, is it appropriate to give her the family heirloom, or is it better to keep that as a memory and find something new for your bride-to-be?

That is a real tricky question, and going down the wrong path can lead to disappointment. There are a few options, and knowing that beforehand can help you make the right decision as to whether to pass on an antique engagement ring.

To begin with, get to know a little bit about how your gal feels about antiques, and how much value she puts on things like family traditions. Some families are steeped in family history, while others are completely devoid of it. Ask her a few questions about how she feels when it comes to things like that. See if she has any family keepsakes of her own, and find out how important they are to her.

The other thing to do is be a little observant and go do a little bit of shopping with her. See if she tends to like things like antique stores or whether she heads strait to the mall and wants everything to be brand knew in her closet. Mention the words "thrift store" and see if she says that she likes those or if she wrinkles her nose and says something about hating all that old junk. That should give you a clue right there.

Another thing to do is talk about some of your own family heirlooms and traditions and see how interested in them she seems to be. If she is, then mention that antique engagement ring and see if her eyes light up a little bit.

Now, there is also the option of buying an antique engagement ring if you don't have one. If your betrothed is interested in that, look for a jewelry store that actually carries them. You would be surprised at how many actually do.

Then there is kind of the best of both worlds, buying a new ring that is styled like an antique engagement ring. There are many designers that off this kind of setting and if you ask your jeweler about them you might find what you are looking for.

Finding out just how she feels about these things is important. On the one hand, you don't want to be giving something you prize as a family tradition to someone who would view it as a "stupid old used ring". But on the other, if you have been talking about some ring that you put great value in and she feels strongly about carrying on that tradition, then you don't want to disappoint her by making it seem like she's not worthy of a prized family treasure.

Get her a ring that means something. Read more about antique engagement rings Birmingham locals prefer at:http://brombergs.com/engagement.
