Ever wondered why lovers kneel on one knee to ask, \\u201cwill you marry me\\u201d? It\\u2019s actually less about the kneeling - it\\u2019s more about the ring\\u2026

Engagement rings are part of a tradition which dates back to Ancient Rome. They symbolized a legally binding commitment, reserved for the most solemn of oaths. Pretty unromantic...


Things have changed quite a bit since ancient times\\u2026 asking somebody\\u2019s hand is something very passionate\\u2026 and today, any kind of jewel can be used for an engagement.. rings, earrings, a bracelet, watch, or a necklace... Some people prefer to embrace tradition, others like to rock the boat\\u2026


... Just like American rapper A$AP Rocky when he proposed to girlfriend and pop icon, Rihanna\\u2026
