    What is everyone sporting on their right hands now that their left ones are *ahem* occupied by their e-rings?

    I alternate between a unique swiss blue topaz in a swirly setting and a faux canary diamond solitaire depending on what I feel like.

    I have 3 right hand rings..all of which have blue stones!  Two are aqauamarines and diamond with white gold..the other is a swiss blue topaz and two smaller iolites in an antique white gold setting with diamonds around it. 

    My left hand is unusually bare.  We'll see when it is decorated! (and it had best be rather soon as my good nature is getting a bit less good) As I see it now, I DELIBERATELY wear a gorgeous sparkly blue ring on my right hand..which signifies my life..and me just as I am.

    Very pretty! I just love my swiss topaz. When it's clean it's so sparkly. They do get dirty easily though. Boo

    Your left hand hopefully won't be naked for long!

    I don't have any "real" jewelry for my right hand.  Sometimes I wear this $10 glass ring I got at Santa Monica beach on my right index finger.

    My fiance and I have worn matching sterling silver celtic knot rings since a few months into our relationship. We ordered them to wear on our right ring fingers, but it wound up that they were both too large, so we each wear them on our right middle fingers.

    I have an alexandrite (color shifts from green to purple depending on if it's in natural or artificial light) ring he gave me a couple years after we started dating & an aquamarine ring he gave me our first Christmas together.

    Both me and fiance wear plain white gold bands (mine 4mm, his 6mm) on the ring fingers of our right hands. They're matching wedding bands, actually, and we got them on our first dating anniversary because we wanted matching rings and the only matching rings we found were wedding bands. My mom was paranoid thinking that we'd gotten married without inviting her when she first saw them, lol. They're also engraved on the inside. Mine says "HisName :-* MyName" and his says "MyName :-* HisName".

    I switch between a blue topaz my FI gave me when he came back from being out of the country and an emerald that I had from before depending on what I'm wearing or what mood I'm in.

    I have 5 silver rings on my right hand and I am planning on wearing them all. Why would I take them off?

    I wear a pink pear cut sapphire with diamonds along the band that my parents gave to me on my 18th birthday. Pink is so so me (I know its cliche but it really is me!) and I am very family oriented so it is literally just as important as my e-ring. I never take either of them off!

    I switch back and forth between a vintage yellow gold signet ring (with a teensy tiny diamond inset) that my parents gave me for my 16th birthday and my great-grandmother's white gold wedding band inset with 6 tiny diamonds.  Both of the rings are special to me...I'm especially honored that I was given my great-grandmother's wedding band.

    I wear a very thin pink gold ring with a teeny diamond on it on my right hand.  My twin sister and I both have them, we got them for each other for our 30th birthday.  It looks like this, but in pink gold:

    I didn't wear it for the wedding though.  I just kept my right hand bare, so I could wear my engagement ring over there during the ceremony.

    when I wear a ring on my right hand it is usually a ring my sister gave me for Christmas two years ago. She actually melted down my mom's wedding ring and a bunch of her old jewelery and had 4 rings made (one for each of us sisters and her) that fit together like a puzzle.

    I also sometimes rock a ring my aunt gave me when I visited my family in Europe. Its 3 bands, gold silver and bronze with a small teardrop shape in the middle and a small diamond.

    I have a ruby and yellow gold ring I bought with one of my first paychecks working in the jewelry department at JCPenney. I love this ring even though I'm not a big fan of yellow gold, but I do have another yellow gold ring on that hand so it isn't the only yellow gold I have.

    I wear my great aunt's platinum wedding ring on my right hand.  It is a thin 1.5 mm band, engraved with simple 4 sided square art deco flowers.  Inside it has their initials inscribed and then the date 10-20-35.  My great aunt was like a second grandma growing up, especially since I lost my grandma to cancer when I was in high school.  Great aunt's husband died in WWII and she never re-married, so her ring is quite dear to me!

    I usually don't wear anything other than my e-ring on my left hand.

    If I do wear anything on my right hand - its between 3 rings

    My black pearl and diamond ring (its beautiful, but too big so I dont wear it often cause I fear I will loose it - I know, a quick fix to re-size it....)

    My moms 'daugters pride' ring she got when she was 16 and gave me when I was 16 (it has my moms and nanas birth stones in it)

    or more recently I got my nanas engagement ring which is a cluster of diamonds with a sapphire ontop in the middle (her birthstone)

    Before I got my engagement ring I had a ring that was given to me by my father when I was ten, just a small silver band with a tiny diamond, that I wore on my left hand. And, then I had a promise ring from Mr. Cable that I got after 6 months of dating that I wore on my right hand. It wasn't much, especially since we were in high school, but, I still love my promise ring five years later. Now, that I have my e-ring my promise ring and dad's ring just take turns sharing my right hand. I know I have an e-ring to signify our love now but my promise ring still means so much to me.

    I have a pretty filigree rose-gold ring with three cubic zirconias set in. Also a gift from FH. I will be mainly wearing my e-ring on that hand after the wedding though.

    I wear the promise ring my hubby gave me about 3 1/2 years ago.  It's silver with the 3 diamonds.  Also, since he isn't wearing his wedding band (it's just not smart for him to do so with what he does for a living...and he is SOOO accident prone) I'm going to get it resized and wear it on my right hand.

    I just got a fabulous right hand ring from my parents for my bday  It is an orange oval sapphire with two small round diamonds on either side set in white gold.  Orange is our wedding color and when I saw it a few mos ago, I told my mom that I should get FI to buy it for me as a wedding gift.  My parents beat him to it : )

    For special occasions I wear my great-grandmother's e-ring, and sometimes I wear the little "diamond fleck" (fiance's words) ring that he got me for our first date anniversary 4 years ago. Usually I don't wear anything; I'm paranoid enough about my ring without having another one to constantly worry about.

    Wide band Tiffany Somerset. I need to replace it because the mesh is all stretched out, so if my hands are wet, it flies off. It was a 6 when I bought it, and now probably is a 7.5.

    I usually sport my A&M College Class ring and if I don't wear it I will wear my black pearl with diamonds ring that is my my class ring from my undergraduate years at Sam Houston or I will wear one of my aquamarine rings that my dad gave me for my birthdays as a little girl.

    I love all the rings my grandmother has given me, but most are in yellow gold, and my wedding jewelry is all white gold.  I think I will wear this antique, hexagonal, filigre white gold ring I found with tiny diamonds in it.  The picture doesn't show the diamonds well, but it's a really pretty ring.  I think it will be my "something old".

    I don't really wear rings - my E-ring is my first ring that I wear consistently! But my MOH has a really pretty "mommy ring" that she got after she had her first child. It looks sort of like a wedding band with an interesting diamond design - simple yet sparkly. I told FI I want one of those when we have a baby!

    My right-hand ring is actually my engagement ring. My husband and I got matching wedding rings and so it's not really stacking-friendly.

    What's your Right Hand Ring? :  wedding 133 13C

    My engagement ring is an oval sapphire solitaire with two small flanking diamonds, plain yellow gold band. It is very simple (in fact I would have preferred a little fancier) but my husband liked it and could afford it! :) teale, I love your RH ring... opals are one of my favorites. :)
