Looking for a unique engagement ring idea? The gimmel ring, with its history, symbolism and tradition, might be the perfect choice for you.
Table of contents
This was a visible symbol of an engagement contract with legal implications beyond the vows of love.
Gimmel Ring
Two hands, separated, then joined in marriage, were often part of the design. Rings with three hoops could take this further, with a heart on one ring being held by the hands from the other two when all were fitted together. This image was also used on non-gimmel types, like the claddagh ring. A heart split in two while the two hoops were separate was another design well-liked in the s and s. Gems were cut to suit, with each lover having a fine jewel, but an incomplete heart, until the wedding.
Separate, regularly cut jewels were also used without any heart motif. Skeletons or other memento mori reminder of death symbols were sometimes included, odd though it may seem to us. Sometimes the rings had poetic mottos engraved inside, as did many single rings. What does it mean for the man to wear a ring while betrothed, then hand it over to the woman on marriage? How does it compare with our custom of the woman alone wearing an engagement ring, while wedding bands are often worn by both partners in a marriage?
Rings worn by their wives, of course.

There is a heart on the 3rd, internal band. Sounds like an interesting ring. Is there any way you can get an expert to look at it? Maybe contact a museum, or ask someone who knows how to appraise antique jewellery? In the 16th and 17th centuries, such rings were fashionable and were often used as betrothal rings. The engaged couple would wear one hoop each and rejoin them to use as a wedding ring. This ring weighs 4. A larger and intricate well preserved gimmel ring for a man or a woman!
