Dinner ring

A dinner ring or cocktail ring is a large over sized ring, set with precious or semiprecious stones. Cocktail rings became popular during the 1940s and 1950s. They are generally worn by women and placed on the fourth finger of the right hand. For this reason they are sometimes known as Right Hand Rings.

Cocktail rings are also known as statement rings and come in both fine jewelry and costume jewelry variations. They are generally over sized and dramatic. Cocktail rings look best when worn on middle or index finger.
