Long fingers

Women with long fingers are lucky in the sense that they have the few rings look bad on them. In any case, princess cut silver rings are ideal, as they highlight your fingers and the shape of your hands in a better way.

Short fingers

Many women with short fingers tend to feel self-conscious and, therefore, do not wear rings. If that is the case, no problem, since there are little tricks to achieve the effect of longer fingers and it's all in the type of ring. You should avoid round stones and prefer diamond shapes that elongate the fingers Optical shape: baguette, marquise, pear shape and oval cut diamond are perfect choices.

Wide fingers

Just as there are wedding dresses for chubby ladies, there are also endless alternatives of gold rings or other materials for women with slightly thicker fingers. In this case, it is best not to opt for very small rings. The key is to choose one that is not necessarily ostentatious, but one that covers strategic parts of the fingers, such as the sides.

Thin fingers

If the bride's fingers are thin, choose thick rings This will create an optical illusion that will make the fingers look wider and make the whole look much more proportional.

Small hands

In the same way that wedding dresses for short girls achieve a harmonious effect, it is easy to find rings for small hands. In this case, you should prefer delicate rings with stones that are not too big, so that the hand does not look too overloaded. For example, they can be princess cut stone, round, oval or heart-shaped.

Young hands

Age is also important to consider when it comes to choosing rings. Simple designs promote youthful skin although, of course, this decision is up to each one's taste. So, if every time you see her hand you will think of beautiful love phrases, the ring should be hopefully small and as minimally invasive as possible.

Mature hands

For older women, it is recommended to wear large rings that allow attention to be focused on it. Don't be afraid to choose large stones These will make the hand look delicate and elegant.

You see, although it may seem a little complex to choose wedding rings, it is a matter of taking into account these observations and choosing according to the characteristics of the bride's hand and, of course, according to her tastes and style. In this way, when raising the wedding glasses at the toast of the dinner, the ring will surely be one of the main protagonists of the night.
