The idea of using memorial rings (also known as mourning rings) dates back to the 16th century when they were traditionally used to honor the deceased. During the Victorian Era, the popularity of memorial rings surged as Queen Victoria set the trend of wearing her own beloved husband’s mourning ring. This ring, a simple yellow-gold wedding band, was given to Victoria by Albert upon the death of his father, and it was an outward symbol of their passionate devotion to one another. As a result, many Victorian mourners began to adopt similar rings to honor their own beloved partners or family members.
