What is the history of the COCKTAIL RING?
It’s a true symbol of women’s liberation!
Cocktail rings became a “thing” during prohibition in the 1920s when it was very in vogue to draw attention to an illegal beverage a lady may be sipping. Add to this a splash of women’s equality, as they were also lavishing in a few fresh freedoms! Namely the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote among other social liberties. For these reasons, rings with epic sparkle were the roaring status symbol!
While cocktail rings today may be the go-to jewels for charity galas, weddings, and black tie occasions, let’s not forget the spirit they originally embodied. Jewelry is meant to be worn so wear them for YOUR reasons, be it in a ballroom, boardroom, or whenever you want!
Cheers to celebrating 100 glamorous years of the cocktail ring and shop coveted pieces that will remind you of your power within…

TIMELESS STATEMENTS:
ZAFFIRO JEWELRY
Cocktail rings are epic wardrobe staples, but especially so when an ancient jewelry technique is involved: granulation! This is one of the many reasons I love Zaffiro Jewelry.
Another is how Elizabeth and Jack select gemstones based on their personalities: “some gemstones just speak to us”.
As you can see, their cocktail rings are a juicy color party - and a breathtaking statement that is unforgettable!
