Top 10 Yellow Gold Promise Rings

What is a “promise ring”? To many, promise rings symbolize a vow to abstain from sex until marriage. For others, they represent a promise to a partner for marriage in the future. While those are the most common reasons, promise rings can also be used to symbolize any promise, even a promise made to yourself.

Aside from symbolic value, promise rings are also beautiful and fashionable. Brilliance.com has many styles of promise rings. For this list, we’ve compiled the Top Ten Yellow Gold Promise Ring styles for every type of look:

The Simple Band Promise

Plain, simple yellow gold bands make gorgeous, clean-looking promise rings that can handle daily wear and tear. Furthermore, plain bands, like the Flat Ring, provide room for personal engravings, which help make the promise ring more personal. Adding the name of a lover or a word that represents your promise adds a little extra to this popular look.

Eternal Promise

Nothing says a promise will be kept forever like a diamond eternity ring. The never-ending circle of diamonds around your finger represents your plan to keep the promise until the end of time. The Pave Diamond Eternity Ring provides a perfect example of what your diamond eternity promise ring could look like.

The Colorful Promise

Without a doubt, diamonds brag more popularity in the engagement ring arena than other gems like sapphires, rubies, or emeralds. However, promise rings are different from engagement rings. With a promise ring, gemstones are often more common, like in this Pave Ruby Gemstone Ring or the Eleven Diamond and Sapphire Ring.

The Modern Promise

There are many promise rings out there that embody a vintage style, but what if your tastes are on the modern side? If that’s the case, go for a promise ring like the Swirl Style Ring that has a trendy, professional vibe, but still the gorgeous glitter of yellow gold.

A Girly Promise

For a highly wearable, but feminine take on the promise ring, try something like the Inset Diamond Ring which features small inset diamonds offset from each other in a yellow gold band.

A Twist On The Classic Promise

If you’re looking for a yellow gold promise ring that is classic but still has a little pizzazz, take a look at bands with interesting details. For instance, this Twisted Rope Ring is classic and simple, yet more dynamic than a plain band.

His and Her Promise

If your ring symbolizes a promise to a lover, nothing says romance like matching his and her rings. These Matching Bezel Heart Concave Diamond Rings feature two half-heart designs on each ring so that when the rings are placed side by side, they make one complete heart

Dazzling Promise

For a promise ring with a look similar to an engagement ring, look for rings with larger diamonds. This Five Diamond Ring features five diamonds and has the “ooh and ahh” factor without looking exactly like an engagement ring.

Filigree Promise

Delicate floral tracery on a golden band is one of the pinnacles of antique style jewelry. For instance, this Antique Ring features complex, romantic detailing to create a versatile promise ring to add character and style to the sentimental piece.

Rock Star Promise

If your style is more edgy, the perfect promise ring would be something sleek and angular like this Rocker Ring in yellow gold. The bottom edges make for a comfortable fit that doesn't spin, while the modern shape fits with a contemporary style.

Perhaps a promise ring represents a new personal goal to achieve, such as being healthier, calling your mother every day, or trying a new activity each week. Or maybe your ring is a tangible reminder to do something on a broader scale such as think positively. Whatever it is, ultimately wearing your promise ring will further instill your resolve in keeping the promise it represents.
