What are Friendship Rings?
Friendship rings are a symbol of a bond between you and your close
friend. Often worn by friends who become separated, or are
currently living apart, friendship rings serve as a reminder that
your dear friend is just a prayer, phone call, email or text message
away. History of
Poesy Rings: Most Poesy Rings originated in Medieval Europe
during the middle ages although some go back as far as 5 BC. During this time, the average person
simply could not afford to buy gold.
So Poesy Rings were traditionally given in sterling
silver. Since French,
Latin and
English were the languages of
the Nobility, many Posey Rings had inscriptions in these languages.
Although, some have been excavated from other areas of the globe,
including the Gaelic regions,
Spain,
Russia,
Germany,
Greece,
China, and
Italy.
Christian and
Hebrew styles and today's modern renditions are also popular. |
