Cocktail rings are massive and bright jewelry that ladies wore on the ring finger. As a rule, this was the hand in which the cocktails were held. It was a kind of women's protest against Prohibition, which was in force in America almost a hundred years ago.

Initially, jewelry was adorned with ring fingers, although they looked more advantageous because of their massiveness on the index or middle fingers.

The 1920s could be safely called a period of controversy. And they concerned traditional values, social and political changes. This could not but affect women's clothing and accessories. Chaining outfits were increasingly replaced by short skirts and trousers, and for evening outings - by revealing dresses. This was echoed by the decorations. In particular, cocktail rings.

Closer to the 50-60s, such jewelry became standard accessories for the outlet. Then, a dozen years later, they briefly went out of fashion to reappear in the extravagant 80s.

Cocktail rings are firmly established in the collections of famous jewelry brands. They can be found in private or public museums, or on the Violity website under Precious Metal Jewelry.
