Ring Stacking Tips
Stacking rings refers to wearing several rings together on one finger. The potential combinations and options for stacking rings can be endless. From the most common engagement ring and wedding ring stacking, to stacking various ring designs on multiple fingers. Here is our guide which includes tips for stacking your rings.
Space out the rings on the fingers
Space your rings out and avoid wearing ring stacks on all five fingers on each hand. This is to help create a more balanced look as well as make your ring stack more comfortable to wear. Having rings on all fingers might lead them to clashing and scratching each other more easily. An easy and popular combination is to skip the thumb and pinkie.
Mix and match colours
This applies to the metal of the rings, as well as the gemstones. You don’t have to limit yourself to a certain metal colour (white/ yellow/ rose gold) or only stick to one colour gemstone like the common white diamonds. Mixing in a little pop of colour can add some fun to the look.
Be creative with shapes
Varying the style or shape of the rings can create a visual balance or add a creative vibe to the overall look. You can mix in one or two chunkier or statement rings in the stack, just make sure to balance them back with simpler ring designs!
Play with textures
Apart from being creative with the colours and shapes, another overlooked tip is to vary the textures. Mixing textures, such as smooth bands with hammered or twisted rings, adds visual interest.
Matching jewellery and outfit
Matching your ring stack to your outfit can create a more seamless look. For a casual daily look, go for a more understated and minimal stack. For a special event, don't be afraid to go bold with your choices.
Choose good quality rings
Rings are something that gets the most contact with sweat, water, and soap and are most likely to get knocked into hard things. Consider getting durable metals like 18K or 22K gold as they do not tarnish and are relatively strong. For rings with gemstones, make sure the prongs are not flimsy and are designed to hold the stones well in place.
