Jewelry Spotlight
Men jewelry rings are a great accessory because though they may
vary in size and composition, they are always an elegant and fun way to
dress up an outfit. Rings aren't just for women, not at all. They have
been a favored accessory by men for years. In ancient times adorning a
letter's seal with a signet from the king's ring meant that it was of
utter importance. Have you ever wondered what it means when
you wear a ring on a specific finger other than the engagement and
wedding ring finger? Let's start with the left, fourth finger which is
where one would
wear their engagement or wedding ring. It is said that there is a vein
on that finger that connects directly to one's heart thus making it the
most meaningful finger to wear one's special ring on. The thumb is
one of the most useful fingers that we have, without opposable thumbs,
many of the tasks we can do would be virtually impossible. It is
believed that one who
wears rings on his thumb is a loud, vocal person and has the need and
desire to be noticed and heard. Another belief is that wearing men
jewellery rings on the thumb is a status of power and represents one's
total and complete self. This is the finger that approves or disapproves
in the Roman Arena a gladiator's life
depended on that small signal. The index or pointing finger
holds much meaning as well. It is said to represent one's siblings. It
is also
said that the pointing finger represents ones' determination, ambition
and leadership. This is the finger one uses to disapprove, to
indicate a certain direction and to command silence. It is believed that
the index finger symbolizes authority. The middle finger can be
called the most controversial finger. Raising this finger on its own can
mean so much insult and obscenity. It is said that the middle finger
represents one's self.
It also represents one's materialistic side, the needs and wants of a
person. Wearing men jewelry rings is also associated with ones
foundations in life, the view of one's self made limitations and
strengths.
Aside from being
the partner, love finger, the fourth finger is also viewed as the
creativity, artistic, finger. It is the weakest finger because it cannot
function much on its own, in fact, using the fourth finger in itself
can be an act of immense creativity. It is also seen as the
empathetic/sympathetic finger therefore it is
associated with appreciation, feelings and art. Wearing men jewelry
rings on this finger is the most known symbol in North America.
