A Brief History of Engagement Rings
Believed by historians to have started with rings made of simple metal wires or plant materials, the tradition of men proposing to their future wives with engagement rings dates all the way back to ancient Egypt.
Taken over by ancient Rome, the rich inhabitants of which not only fashioned their “betrothal” rings from silver and gold but also adorned them with a diversity of precious gems, this custom soon spread around the world and during the Middle Ages – a time of intense superstitions – many of these rings were decorated with sapphires, as these precious stones were believed to change in colour if a wearer was insincere or unfaithful.
Made an “official” tradition by Prince Maximilian I in 1477, when he proposed to Maria Burgundzka with an engagement ring encrusted with diamonds shaping an “M”, the custom of presenting one’s intended future wife with a ring upon proposing to her continued to flourished throughout the 16th, 17th and 18th Centuries.
During these centuries, rings became ever more elaborate and frequently saw their insides engraved with names, noble titles and even religious quotes. While sapphires remained a highly popular choice, the 18th Century also started seeing diamonds as a perfect choice to represent pure, eternal love.
This choice was made even more popular after the creation of Tiffany’s sensational and now somewhat legendary diamond engagement ring in the 19 th Century (1886, to be precise).
An era known for its romance, this century saw an explosion of ever-new, ever more beautiful rings not only featuring the iconic Tiffany diamond ring design, but an array of other precious stones set to form floral, flower, heart and many other wonderful shapes – many of which still delight to this day.
Inspired by the enchanting history of this beautiful tradition, Savicki Jewellers have been creating simply gorgeous, unique engagement rings set with all kinds of stones since 1976 – and thanks to the significant meaning of sapphires, our sapphire engagement rings are among our customers most popular choices…
The Meaning of White Sapphire Rings
Sapphires have fascinated and played a huge part in the lives of humanity for centuries, even millennia. Once used to seek justice and truth, as well as in wizardry and magic, they were long regarded as symbols from heaven, guardians of innocence, preservers of chastity and bestowals of truth.
Believed to ensure the sincerity of partners, boost relationships and strengthen the bond between lovers, sapphires have long since symbolised long-lasting relationships and are said to bestow wearers with the gifts of joy, fulfilment and inner peace; beauty and prosperity.
These deep meanings combined with the inherent sparkling beauty of sapphires makes them the perfect choice for engagement rings – and a truly beautiful way of telling your beloved that your love for her is indeed eternal.

Size Matters!
The moment you propose to your beloved with a beautiful sapphire engagement ring is a very special, romantic moment – and the last thing you want is to ruin this, one of your lives’ most important and most magical moments, by discovering that the ring you selected will not fit your beloved’s finger.
Choosing the right ring size is therefore obviously of crucial importance. This, of course, is no problem if you are choosing the ring together, in which case she will be able to tell you the right size.
If she is unsure, you can also ask us to send you a free ring sizer and determine her ring size by using it as described here .
However, this may not be possible if you hope to make your proposal a wonderful surprise, perhaps over a romantic dinner or on the beach while on holiday. In this case, secretly taking one of her existing rings to a jeweller and having it sized there would certainly be the best and safest way to get the right size. Naturally, you should make sure to return the ring quickly to prevent her suspecting anything!
If all else fails, you could ask her best friend, mother or sister if they know her size. You should, however, only do this as a last resort, because this could still be a matter of guesswork and uncertainty – not to mention the fact that in their excitement over the upcoming engagement, they may not be able to keep your secret!
Size Really Does Matter!
