King George gifted one to Queen Charlotte in 1761 to protect her diamond ring, specifically described as a guard for her wedding ring. They were initially simple bands worn in front of a larger, more expensive ring to prevent it from slipping off, but they evolved in the Victorian era to become more ornate, sometimes worn alone as a token of friendship or love. Today, they are often called guard rings and are still used to protect other rings, or are worn as fashion statements and unique wedding bands.\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"T286Pc\" data-sfc-cp=\"\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003eSome keeper rings, like the braided and knotted styles, began to be worn alone as a representation of everlasting love and connection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003eToday, keeper rings are now used for a range of purposes, simply stacking, wearing as a promise ring or traditionally to keep larger, more valuable rings safe. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\n\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-wiz-uids=\"ivExec_c,ivExec_d\" class=\"uJ19be notranslate\"\u003e\u003cspan data-processed=\"true\" data-animation-atomic=\"\" class=\"vKEkVd\"\u003eThis one is particularly nice with a wide fine braided and knotted design.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9ct yellow gold \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGemstones - None\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize - S.5 \/ 9.5\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeight - 2.6g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition - Great vintage condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeeper rings \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-processed=\"true\" data-subtree=\"aimfl,mfl\"\u003eKeeper ring originated in the 18th century as a practical way of keeping the wearers ring safe on their finger.
