A full eternity ring is the ultimate expression of unending commitment – diamonds set all the way around the band, symbolising a love with no beginning and no end. At Alan Bick, our full eternity wedding bands are handcrafted in Hatton Garden, London, in platinum with natural and lab-grown diamonds, from our signature round brilliant to our statement oval claw-set designs.
Full or Half Eternity — Which Is Right for You?
A full eternity band features diamonds all around the band for maximum sparkle and visual impact, while a half eternity places stones only across the front. Full eternity bands are the showier choice; half eternity rings offer a more practical fit and are easier to resize.
Our Full Eternity Collection
From the classic Savannah round diamond microset band at 0.80ct to the statement Kitty oval claw-set design at 5.50ct, each piece is crafted in platinum and available with natural or lab-grown diamonds to suit your budget.
Handcrafted in Hatton Garden, London
Every ring is made to order in our London workshop, hallmarked, and presented with stone certification and an insurance valuation. Complimentary engraving is included with every purchase.

What year of marriage do you get an eternity ring?
Traditionally, eternity rings are gifted after a significant anniversary, but there’s no rule: you may exchange them whenever the time feels right, as their purpose is to celebrate lasting adoration.
What is the point of an eternity ring?
An eternity ring is a timeless symbol of enduring love. The continuous band of stones represents a devotion that has no beginning or end, making it a heartfelt gift for milestones.
Is an eternity band the same as a wedding band?
An eternity band isn’t exactly the same as a wedding ring, but as they do serve the same purpose, you can use an eternity ring for your wedding. A traditional matrimonial piece is often plain or lightly detailed, and an eternity band features gemstones. You may choose it for its added sparkle and symbolism.
Should I prefer half eternity rings or full?
It depends on your lifestyle and style preference: while half eternity rings are a touching symbol of everlasting love, full eternity bands can add a better sparkle to a beautiful wedding stack.
Is it possible to resize a diamond eternity ring?
Even though full eternity rings are difficult to resize due to the continuous setting of stones, you can still ask about bespoke options that suit you. And half eternity options can sometimes be adjusted slightly.
Which hand or finger should an eternity engagement ring be worn on?
Most people choose to wear their eternity band on the same finger as their wedding and engagement rings, as per tradition, on the left ring finger. However, you’ll also see them worn on the right hand.
Are there budget-friendly alternatives to a full eternity band?
Yes, half eternity rings are a beautiful and cost-effective option that many people opt for, as they feature diamonds across the front half of the band, giving you all the shine from the visible side while being more comfortable and affordable than full designs.
Can eternity rings be designed for men, too?
Indeed, they can: men’s eternity bands are growing in popularity and can be designed with gemstones, or textured metalwork for a bold yet meaningful look, often using metals like white gold, yellow gold or platinum to commemorate commitment.
What metal options can I shop for eternity rings?
The metal options that you can shop for eternity bands include a range of precious metals such as platinum, white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold.
