✨ Raise a Glass to Statement Style: The Story Behind Our Cocktail Rings ✨
Bold, sassy, and impossible to ignore—cocktail rings have always made an entrance. These oversized dazzlers were first spotted clinking martini glasses and sparkling under chandeliers in the roaring 1920s, when women began to break free of tradition and express themselves through fashion like never before. Worn on the right hand
(not the ring finger!) as a symbol of independence, confidence, and just a touch of rebellion, the cocktail ring became the ultimate accessory for nights out and living large.
They surged again in popularity during the 1950s and 1960s when costume jewelry took center stage. With more affordable materials like lucite and resin, jewelry became fun, fabulous, and accessible—bringing big style without the big price tag. Today, cocktail rings are back in a big way, and we’re celebrating them the Leetie Lovendale way.
💍 Our Cocktail Ring Collection: Vintage Stones, Modern Comfort
At Leetie Lovendale, we believe in jewelry with a story—and our cocktail rings are no exception. Each ring is a wearable treasure crafted with vintage lucite stones originally produced in the 1950s to the 1980s. These colorful gems are sourced from archived deadstock materials, meaning they’ve never been used until now—just waiting to shine again.
Where do our stones come from?
