In ancient times, only a few men and women could write, and even kings and emperors were illiterate. Also, it was necessary to seal the correspondence with lacquer wax, to prevent it from being read by others. The seal of the family was then affixed to the lacquer wax, which was engraved on the noble&#8217;s ring. Over time, then, this type of rings served only as an ornament, to flaunt belonging to a noble family. Nowadays it has spread, however, as a simple jewel, which can be worn by anyone. But, if you are not a countess, marquis or princess, it would be wiser to avoid choosing rings with fake badges.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_89422\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-89422\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-89422\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti.jpg\" alt=\"Anello cheval\u00e8re in oro bianco, diamanti, cristallo di rocca e smeraldo Muzo\" width=\"709\" height=\"886\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti-44x55.jpg 44w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Anello-Chevaliere-Emeraude-in-oro-bianco-platino-cristallo-di-rocca-smeraldo-Muzo-e-diamanti-400x500.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-89422\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Signet ring in white gold, diamonds, rock crystal, and Muzo emerald, Boucheron fine jewelry<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Signet rings were in the past almost exclusively worn by men, in fact they are also called chevalier (knight). Over time, however, women also began to wear rings of this type. So, don&#8217;t worry: women can safely wear signet rings too.<\/p>\n<p>On which hand to wear the ring? The signet ring or chevalier ring is usually worn on the little finger of the secondary hand. If you mainly use the right hand, then, it will be more comfortable to wear the ring on the left hand and, conversely, if you are left-handed you will wear the chevalier ring on the right hand. This principle also applies to men.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_73871\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-73871\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-73871\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1.jpg\" alt=\"Anello chevalier indossato\" width=\"709\" height=\"473\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1-82x55.jpg 82w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/anello-chevalier-indossato-1-400x267.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-73871\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rose gold signet ring worn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Why is the ring worn on the little finger?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As we have said, the signet ring originally had a practical function: it replaced the signature of a noble. But to house the family crest or personal symbol, it was necessary to use rings with a rather large surface. Wearing a large ring of this type on the little finger was easier, because it did not hinder the movements of the hand, perhaps to hold the sword.<\/p>\n<p>Today, the habit of wearing chevalier rings on the little finger has simply remained, even if the size has decreased. In fact, there are also those who wear this type of ring on other fingers of the hand. It&#8217;s wrong? There is no law that prohibits wearing a signet ring on a finger other than the little finger. Prince Charles of England, for example, wears the chevalier ring strictly on his little finger. Meghan Markle, on the other hand, exhibited it on her ring finger. It also depends on the proportions of the ring, of course: a jewel with a large surface could be uncomfortable and out of proportion on a little finger.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_108315\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-108315\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-108315\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali.png\" alt=\"Anello con sigillo di PdPaola indossato sul dito anulare, grazie alle dimensioni non eccessive\" width=\"709\" height=\"886\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali.png 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali-240x300.png 240w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali-44x55.png 44w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/2.PDPAOLA_Essenziali-400x500.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-108315\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">PdPaola signet ring worn on the ring finger, thanks to its moderate size<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Which ring to choose?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The signet or chevalier ring to be worn on the little finger, as we have seen, has lost its original meaning, although many people with noble titles continue to use them. The jewelers have thus indulged in many different variations. There is, however, a rule: choose a ring that is proportionate to the size of your hands. A signet ring doesn&#8217;t have to overhang your little finger, but add a touch of elegance. Also, if you wear a chevalier ring that is too large you will find yourself clumsy when you have to grab an object and the jewel could be annoying.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_17812\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-17812\" style=\"width: 709px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-17812\" src=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965.jpg\" alt=\"Anello al mignolo\" width=\"709\" height=\"512\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965.jpg 709w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965-76x55.jpg 76w, https:\/\/gioiellis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/mignolo-e1659801396965-400x289.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 100vw, 709px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-17812\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pinkie ring<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why wear a pinky ring?
