What is Cocktail Ring?

It is a large over-sized ring, set with gemstones, and was very popular during US prohibition at illegal cocktail parties. There was a good demand of cocktail ring style in the 1940's and 1950's, as cocktail parties used to be the popular event during those days.

Although, nowadays cocktail parties are not as prominent as olden days, yet wearing a diamond cocktail ring with huge diamonds or other large precious or semi-precious gems is still fashionable for a formal dressy occasion or any casual event.

These statement rings are generally worn by women on fourth finger (index finger) or on middle finger of the right hand. Due to this reason these rings are sometimes confused with Right Hand Diamond Rings.

Vintage jewelry (like - vintage diamond engagement rings) is undoubtedly in craze these days, and this is what makes vintage diamond cocktail ring in demand. You can easily find a dressy cocktail ring of 60's era with unique classy vintage looks. Vintage diamond cluster cocktail ring with a huge center gemstone  was a common feature in those days.
