What Are Stackable Rings?
Stackable rings are simply rings that are meant to be layered or “stacked” on the same finger, with more than one ring worn at a time. They are generally thinner than more classic ring styles so the finger is not overwhelmed, and they do tend to coordinate, even if only loosely. Because stackable rings can be switched and swapped very easily, they are the ultimate in jewelry personalization, customization, and creativity.
How To wear Stackable Rings?
Rings may be stacked on more than one finger at a time, and many people opt to wear stacked rings on several fingers simultaneously for a glamorous look. The rings might fight tightly or snugly together for a precise and polished look, or they may be looser with space between them for a shabby chic, bohemian style.
Cost of Stacking Rings
Because stackable rings are thinner and individually each ring is less elaborate than many ring designs, they can be less expensive than larger, more intricate rings. This allows you to “build” your rings over time into more elaborate looks, as you add different stackable options to your jewelry collection.
This also means that your stackable rings can better reflect changes in your personality, style, and preferences, as you can always change how you stack rings to better suit your mood, layering different rings together for different meanings without necessarily purchasing a completely new ring collection.
The Original Stackable Rings
Stacking rings has been done in one specific circumstance for many years – brides have often “stacked” their engagement and wedding rings together into a coordinated set. Whether these are individual coordinating rings or if the engagement ring has been paired with a wrap, enhancer, or guard to turn it into a wedding set, these stacks have timeless appeal as bridal sets. In time, an eternity band may be stacked with a bridal set to represent an anniversary or a renewal of vows. Today’s stackable rings, however, go far beyond engagement rings and wedding rings, and may be worn for many reasons.
Coordinating Stackables
Tips For Stacking Rings
• Odd Number
Wear an odd number of rings, which looks more aesthetically pleasing than an even number.
• Similarity
Choose rings of similar widths to wear together for a more refined, deliberate look.
• Care
Be sure rings will not rub together in a way that would cause scratching or damage.
• Statement
Consider wearing one larger “statement” ring on one finger, with stacks on other fingers.
• Comfort
Do not wear so many rings that the finger is restricted or uncomfortable.
• The Look
Consider leaving one finger bare so the hand doesn’t look overly cluttered.
• Finger Size
Check that the rings are appropriately sized for the finger where they will be worn. It is common to have different ring sizes on different hands or different fingers on the same hand.
How Will You Stack Up?
Stackable rings are a fun and creative jewelry trend, one that can be flexible and personalized for different styles, moods, meanings, and occasions. No matter how you choose to wear these rings, your stack is a reflection of you, and even as your style changes through the years, you can change how you wear stackable rings so these favorite pieces of jewelry can always be part of your personal fashion.
