Milestones of the Heart: Choosing the Perfect Anniversary Jewelry
Marriage is a precious journey that brings cherished memories with every passing year. Certain milestones deserve extra celebration with meaningful anniversary rings and jewelry gifts that honor your commitment and love. Read on to learn why jewelry has become the go-to gift for anniversaries, and discover some inspired gift ideas from John Atencio’s renowned collection.
Honoring Anniversary Traditions
Anniversaries mark joyful milestones, and over time, traditions have developed around gifts for each year. For centuries, specific gemstones and metals have been associated with particular anniversary years. Chock full of symbolic meaning, these traditional anniversary jewelry gifts honor marital longevity while bringing beauty to daily life. With that said, these days, more couples are taking an individual approach to anniversary gifts, opening the door to a wider array of options.
John Atencio specializes in crafting jewelry that speaks to the heart, allowing you to honor life’s special moments with artfully crafted, heirloom-quality pieces. Whether you’re celebrating your first year together or 50 years of marriage bliss, his jewelry experts can guide you to pieces well suited to your anniversary. With custom design services, you can even create one-of-a-kind pieces marked with special dates or engraved sentiments.
Eternity Bands: Honoring Lasting Bonds
Eternity bands and stackable rings are especially popular anniversary jewelry choices. The unbroken circle of gems symbolizes enduring love and lifelong commitment.
A shared-prong diamond eternity band pairs beautifully with an original engagement ring. For added sparkle, consider a double or triple-row style. A plain band also allows for the engraving of names or special dates. You can also choose one of John Atencio’s unique eternity bands, featuring artistic designs you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
When selecting eternity rings for anniversaries, it’s best to choose a style that complements their existing jewelry. This may mean carefully matching metals or choosing a slender band that won’t overwhelm delicate solitaire rings. You can also incorporate design elements like halo settings to echo an original ring’s details. If you’re unsure where to start, John’s attentive experts will work with you to create a perfect match.
Upgraded Engagement Rings
Major milestones also present opportunities to upgrade a cherished engagement ring. Trading an original solitaire for a larger center stone symbolizes growth in love and life.
As your relationship evolves and your love deepens, it's natural to consider upgrading your engagement ring to reflect your journey together. Whether you're celebrating a significant anniversary or want to align your ring with your current style and financial standing, trading up can be a meaningful way to honor your enduring bond.
When considering an engagement ring upgrade, it's important to select a piece that truly reflects your love story. John Atencio understands the significance of this decision and is dedicated to helping you find a ring that's as unique as your relationship.
John’s collections feature a stunning array of engagement ring designs crafted with artistry and contemporary elegance. Take, for instance, his striking Intrigue princess cut 18k diamond ring.
There's something beautifully simplistic about the intriguing architecture of Intrigue. One of John’s original designs, this iconic favorite sets the diamond in square channels, where it glitters atop a series of sparkling luxe diamond accents. Available in white, yellow, rose gold, and platinum, Intrigue is a stunning upgrade with a classic look and contemporary flair.
Not to be outdone, John’s Ventana Engagement Ring stuns with its distinctive design.
Drawing inspiration from the architectural elegance of a stucco residence adorned with square windows, Ventana epitomizes the geometric allure of the square shape. Crafted with a visionary approach by John Atencio, the Ventana ring is a bold testament to contemporary design, engineered specifically to highlight the mesmerizing beauty of a square princess-cut diamond. This iconic piece stands as a testament to the distinct aesthetic and design philosophy synonymous with the John Atencio brand.
Another favorite, John’s new Lavish Engagement Ring embodies opulence and grandeur.
With an unparalleled blend of artistic vision and architectural finesse, John introduces a distinctive oval setting that becomes a canvas for multi-levels of rich pave diamonds to create a brilliant dimension. These layers add depth and an extraordinary allure, culminating in a piece that radiates exquisite beauty. Crafted with precision and care, the Lavish ring is designed to make a definitive statement of elegance in the realm of engagement jewelry.
