D shape rings are one of the most popular types of rings available on the market, and have been for a long time. D shape wedding rings are popular even today, as they are incredibly traditional, and are often used as wedding or engagement rings. They are often available in a wide variety of different metals, meaning d shape rings are one of the most versatile choices for wedding and engagement rings.
D shape rings are called that because of the ‘shank,’ which is simply the band of the ring, but rings are made up of many parts. These parts are called ‘elements.’ Here are the 4 main elements of a typical ring, which will help you identify d shape wedding rings when you’re searching for antique and vintage jewellery.
Head - this element refers to where the stone is placed on the ring. Shoulders - the part of the shank that leads up to the head of the ring.
Prong - the part of the ring that supports the stone and head.
Profile - cross-section of the ring shank.
D shape rings have a significantly different ring shank than other rings - they can be identified when the shank has a cross section that resembles the outline of the letter 'D'. They are a very popular and traditional choice as a wedding ring or engagement ring, as they are very comfortable. Many people choose antique d shape wedding rings for their classic beauty, and timeless comfortable style.

D shape rings are a very classic style of ring, and have been around for centuries. Many people tend to favour d shape rings over other styles, as they are known to be the most comfortable. Not only are d shape rings very comfortable, but they are very classically stylish and beautiful. D shape wedding rings are ideal as engagement or wedding rings, because of how well they sit on your finger. If you’re looking for a timeless and vintage d shape wedding ring, here at Berganza, we specialise in vintage and antique rings so we have something to suit every taste.
There are many different types of ring, however when choosing a wedding ring, many people choose between court and d shape rings. D shape wedding rings are flat on the inside, and curved on the outside. The shank is said to look like the outline of the letter D. However, a court wedding ring is the opposite of a d shape ring - it is curved on the inside, and flat on the outside. Each choice can make a beautiful selection for a vintage engagement or wedding ring. However, d shape rings are renowned for how well they sit on the finger, and how optimal they are for everyday wear. This is important if you’re looking for a wedding or engagement ring that will be worn everyday.

If you want your vintage d shape wedding ring to be cleaned properly, you should consider looking for professional cleaning services. Here at Berganza, we are proud to offer complimentary annual cleaning for life with every purchase, so your precious d shape wedding ring can be taken care of properly.
