Worn on the right hand by convention, a cocktail ring reads as its own statement, visually and symbolically separate from the commitment jewelry on the left.
Myth & Meaning
Amethyst jewelry carries documented symbolic meaning across three major Western traditions. The Greek word amethystos translates as not intoxicated, reflecting an ancient belief in the stone's protective properties, which is an association that extended into Roman use and Christian symbolism, giving the stone a layered meaning well beyond its color.
Gifting
Jewelry is different than most gifts. Getting it right means understanding material, scale, and fit for the specific person. Ross-Simons has spent over seventy years helping customers find just the right style.
