A wedding ring is the most important piece of jewelry that spouses exchange during the wedding ceremony. It is not only an ornament, but above all a symbol of mutual love, fidelity and a new stage of life.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc8d In this article you will learn:
\n\u2714 On which hand is a wedding ring worn in Poland?<\/p>\n

\u2714 On which finger is an engagement ring worn?<\/p>\n

\u2714 Where does this tradition come from?<\/p>\n

On which hand is a wedding ring worn in Poland?<\/a><\/h5>\n

Traditions regarding wearing wedding rings vary depending on the country. In most Western countries, such as France, Italy or Great Britain, the wedding ring is worn on the left hand, because it is closer to the heart.<\/p>\n

However, in Poland, the wedding ring is worn on the right hand.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udca1 Why?
\n\ud83d\udd39 Until 1863, wedding rings were also worn on the left hand in Poland.
\n\ud83d\udd39 The situation changed after the January Uprising, when women, in a gesture of mourning for their fallen fianc\u00e9s, moved their wedding rings to their right hands.
\n\ud83d\udd39 This moving story made this custom permanent.<\/p>\n

\u2e3b<\/p>\n

On which finger should an engagement ring be worn?<\/a><\/h5>\n

In Poland, as in most countries, an engagement ring is worn on the ring finger.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udca1 Why this particular finger?
\n\u2714 In ancient times, it was believed that a direct vein runs from it to the heart – vena amoris.
\n\u2714 It symbolizes love and fidelity, as well as a lasting connection between two people.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd39 Before the wedding, an engagement ring is worn on the right hand.
\n\ud83d\udd39 After the wedding ceremony, there are two popular solutions:
\n\u2714 Wearing the engagement ring and wedding ring on the same finger of the right hand.<\/p>\n

\u2714 Moving the engagement ring to the ring finger of the left hand to make room for the wedding ring.<\/p>\n

\u2e3b<\/p>\n

The symbolism of the ring finger – why is it a sign of love?<\/h5>\n

According to a beautiful legend, each finger of the hand symbolizes an important person in our life:
\n\u2714 Thumbs – parents who raised us.
\n\u2714 Index fingers – siblings and friends.
\n\u2714 Middle finger – ourselves.
\n\u2714 Ring finger – our other half.
\n\u2714 Little finger – future children.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udc8d If you put your hands together so that all the fingers touch with the pads, but the middle ones are bent, you will notice something unusual:
\n\u2714 You can easily separate the thumbs because parents are leaving.
\n\u2714 You can separate your index fingers because siblings start their own families.<\/p>\n

\u2714 You can separate your little fingers because children will leave home one day.<\/p>\n

\u2714 However, you cannot separate your ring fingers – because they symbolize love that is meant to last forever.<\/p>\n
