Description
Promise rings date back to the 16th century. They were also known as friendship rings and illustrations show these rings as early as 1576 AD. In those days, when a man could not afford to get married, he would often buy a promise ring as a placeholder until such time he would be able to effectuate a marriage. During the 20th century, in some instances women would offer men's promise rings to their man because, at the time, he was unable to commission to be wed. It was generally a surprise offering and was something the man could accept or deny. Tradition generally holds that these rings were given by younger couples. This was usually the case because it was normal for the young couple not to have a wealth position that would allow for marriage and children. Nowadays anyone can give a promise ring, regardless of wealth or social status.

My rendition of a Friendship ring. Meaning:
You are my ring of friends I made here at Rendo and I am giving you a rose to thank you for the years knowing you all from the start. When I make friends, it's friends for LIFE.
Thank you for giving me the chance to be your friend.
Hugs
