How do I wear a geometric target ring safely?

These rings sit low to the finger, which protects the concentric stone settings from daily knocks and catches. Match the ring with plain wedding bands to prevent friction against the outer gemstone borders. Avoid wearing them during heavy manual tasks or swimming to keep the delicate platinum claws and millegrain work secure.

What periods do these rings come from?

The pieces span the Edwardian era through the 1920s and 1930s Art Deco movement, with occasional mid-century revivals. Art Deco examples dominate the selection with their strict symmetry and architectural lines. Earlier pieces often incorporate softer rose cut diamonds, while 1930s variations favour sharp calibre cut sapphires and rubies.

Can I resize a geometric target ring?

Resizing depends entirely on the construction of the outer shoulders and the security of the concentric stone tiers. Solid platinum or gold shanks resize easily without disturbing the main target face. Consult a specialist jeweller who can adjust the band without warping the delicate geometric symmetry of the outer rings.

What stones are used in target rings?

Diamonds form the core of almost every target design, either as the central focal point or within the surrounding halo tiers. Deep blue sapphires and rich red rubies provide the traditional contrasting border colours. Less common variations incorporate emeralds, onyx, aquamarines or pearls to create alternative concentric colour patterns.
