Top 8 Promise Ring Choices

By Susan Breslow Sardone, About.com

Bestow a promise ring on your love, and it says you're ready to take the next (small) step in your relationship. This selection of promise ring jewelry will help you to seal a vow... without getting too serious. Some couples agree that a promise ring will symbolize their pre-engagement. In reality, though, a promise ring can be interpreted in many different ways.

What Does a Promise Ring Mean?

1. Purple and Blue Stones Promise Ring

If you want a promise ring with a lot of "show" for a little money, this one from Zales, with its simulated blue alexandrite and purple tanzanite and lab-created white sapphires is sure to attract admiring glances.

2. Oval Peridot and Diamond Ring

Peridot is a light-green, semi-precious stone, and the diamonds add some gravitas to this pretty promise ring.

3. 7-in-1 Promise Ring

What I like about this promise ring is that it's actually 7 rings in one. You get seven different colors of (lucky!) jade in 7 different promise rings, each studded with a small matching stone. Each promise ring can be worn alone, in combination, or with the 14kt gold and diamond snap-on frame that completes this gift of the heart.

4. Mabe Pearl Promise Ring

A "statement" ring, this attention-getting promise ring features a dome-shaped cultured mabé pearl set in sterling silver with a thin rim of vermeil (sterling silver plated with 18-karat gold).

5. Pink Sapphire and Diamond Promise Ring

This glittering three-stone promise ring is the height of femininity, with a pink oval center stone surrounded by a pair of round diamonds set in valuable 18k white gold.

6. Affordable Diamond Promise Ring

Five precious, tiny diamonds sit on the front of the 10k white gold band of this ring, making the wearer an enduring promise of love and life together.

7. Diamond Sweetheart Promise Ring

Tiny sparkling diamonds draw the eye to this promise ring, which features a pavé heart at the center and diamonds along the front of the band.

8. Engraved Birthstone-and-Diamond Promise Ring

Tiny diamond accent stones highlight the round center birthstone on this pretty promise ring, which has a pleasingly ornate setting. Up to 10 characters can be engraved on each side.
