A History of Flower Ring Designs

There has been a tradition of making jewelry that looks like flowers pretty much since the beginning of time.

A tremendously popular form of inspiration for jewelry and rings over the years has been the use of flowers of all kinds. This has been the case since the Georgian era up until today.

Georgian Jewelry (Circa 1715-1835)

Flower motifs became one of the most popular motifs for ring designs during the late Georgian era. In the past, everything was handmade in gold or silver, and presenting a ring with a flower design on it was seen as a very romantic gesture. While this is true, the flower rings of the Georgian era were not as refined as those of today, so they did not look as realistic as those of today. 

Victorian Jewelry (Circa 1835-1900)

There was a noticeable change in jewelry designs during the early Victorian era. Jewelry designs become more realistic, with more intricate details. The designs of this era were known for their romantic, bold, feminine, and exquisite craftsmanship. It was common to see designs of foliage and floral patterns that were inspired by nature. It has been said that lovers were deeply enlivened by the secret languages assigned to their flower rings.

There are different types of flowers that convey different kinds of messages of love and emotion. It was believed that sunflowers symbolized adoration, daisies represented innocence, and tulips expressed a declaration of love, while violets stood for loyalty and devotion, for example. Jewelry and rings made during the Victorian era were decorated with a variety of flowers from all over the world. 

Early, Middle, or Late Victorian Era

The Victorian era can be divided into three distinct periods – the early, middle, and late-era – and the styles of that era were greatly influenced by the Queen's taste at the time. In 1861, when her husband Prince Albert died, the beginning of the Mid-Victorian era was marked by the rise of mourning jewelry (the types of flowers used as motifs are also a reflection of this change). 

Furthermore, the Victorian era was also marked by a great deal of advancement in technology and manufacturing. In the course of the Victorian era, there was a significant increase in the sophistication of the designs, precious metals, and diamond cuts.

In addition to silver and gold, they used gemstones like opals, sapphires, moonstones, vitrines, ambers, and pearls to create their jewelry. Aside from that, they also experimented with stunning enameling techniques and unique settings as part of their work.

There was a decline in the popularity of rings and jewelry that resembled flowers during the late Victorian era, but it became more prevalent during the Art Nouveau era. However, they used flowers that had never been used in jewelry before, such as water lilies, poppies, and fuchsias. As a result, the designs were curvy, feminine, and whimsical in nature. There was also a lot of inspiration drawn from Japanese art during the creation of this piece. In terms of jewelry, a white gold flower ring is the most popular one and is the perfect choice for brides or as an engagement ring.
