I'm interested in where the interpretation of it as a "Russian ring" came from. Because in russian wedding tradition, there were no rings at all. Only in times of the USSR rings became the norm, but just a simple band (you wear it after Courthouse Wedding ), without an engagement ring and stones. At that time religion was prohibited. And if we talk about the Orthodox wedding ceremony, no rings are present again, they use crowns during the ceremony. So the theory is as fake as it gets.

I also found this really strange. Also, in Austria, we never really had the tradition of engagement rings for example and many diamond companies say the tradition comes from Austria. If you find something about that “fake” tradition in Russia, please let me know. I want to know that too

@@PinkLookbook In order to find the truth, I believe it's important to search for information in Russian, as this claim is only supported by English-language sources. If you search for "Свадебные традиции России" (meaning Russian wedding traditions) or "Обручальные кольца России" (Russian engagement rings), you won't be able to find any evidence to support it. It seems like this information was created for a Western audience, as locals don't seem to have any knowledge about it.
