Golden Gate Chapter: History of Wedding Rings with Diana Singer, GIA GG

Wedding rings have been a symbol of relationship commitments throughout history – from ancient cultures to modern times. Rings signify the hope and expectation of everlasting love. Stylistically, through the ages, the designs have mirrored changing times and techniques. Join Diana Singer, an antique and period jewelry specialist, on a walk down this path as we look at ancient and modern wedding rings.
