Stacks of rings on the fingers can be a great way to experiment with your style and are a versatile, tactile addition to your jewelry. After all, you only have 10 fingers; what if you have more than 10 rings? You’ve gotta stack ‘em, of course.
What is stacking rings?
Much like layering necklaces, stacking rings is wearing several rings at once on the same finger. Rings can be stacked on only one finger, or on many fingers at the same time.
How do you wear stacked rings?
The easiest way to wear stacked rings is to find a few that sit nicely on each other. When rings don’t sit against each other easily, stacking them can feel uncomfortable on the finger.
How many rings should I stack?
How many rings should you stack? How long are your fingers?! Just kidding, kind of. The key to successfully stacking rings is making sure that your fingers feel comfortable and can still bend. That means you won’t want to stack rings on your knuckles. If you do want to go all the way up the finger, adding a ring that fits your upper finger offers that visual effect without making it impossible to use your hands!
On the bottom part of the finger, try stacking two to three rings. The thinner the ring, the more you can stack. If you’re not sure how stacked rings will feel, start with two, then go from there.
What is the rule about stacking rings?
The rule about stacking rings is…there is no rule! As with all guidelines for jewelry, it’s really about finding the pieces that suit your personal style.
Often, having a “statement ring” around which to stack can be helpful. Then, add dantier or smaller rings for a dynamic look.
On which finger do you stack rings?
It is easiest to stack rings on your index, middle, and ring fingers, because they are often the longest. That said, you can stack rings on whichever finger you like!
Keep in mind that stacking rings on multiple fingers on the same hand can be slightly uncomfortable if the rings are thick. If you plan to wear rings this way, consider going for thin bands.
Is it okay to mix metals with stacked rings?
Yes! Mixing metals with stacked rings is a great starting point for mixed metal colors in general. If you’re just dipping your toe (or, erm, finger) into stacking rings, consider stacking the same style of ring in two different metal colors. This keeps the look interesting but still polished.
