Gold Rings
Gold Air Force rings can be designed to reflect a person’s service in the Air Force. They can also be designed to show that a person served during a particular war or series of battles: Korean War rings, Vietnam War rings and Operation Desert Storm Air Force rings are examples. Still, other types of Air Force rings incorporate the design of a specific Air Force combat medal or badge, or a specific rank insignia, into their design. There are three basic styles of Air Force rings. The first is a somewhat ornate design that is very similar to a school ring or class ring. It usually has a semi-precious gem, crystal or coloured stone set in the centre. This type of Air Force ring also has several different designs engraved or etched partway down the sides of the band on each side of the central stone.
The second type of Air Force ring is a more streamlined, elegant ring with flowing, “clean” lines. This design sometimes consists solely of engraved or etched precious metal at the top of the ring, but it is sometimes set with a central semi-precious gem, crystal or other stone. The sides of the band of this type of ring are usually not decorated, and the ring has a strong, masculine appearance.
Rings with Stone
The third type of Air Force ring is similar to a signet ring or seal ring and utilizes Air Force military coats of arms or insignia as the “seal” at the top of the ring. There is no centre stone with this design. All Air Force rings, however they are designed, can be decorated with beautifully engraved and highly symbolic heraldic crests, shields, coats-of-arms or insignia that are used in the Air Force.
Air Force rings are usually made of precious metals such as gold, silver or platinum, and high-quality pieces have intricate detail. If the crest or coat of arms has been coloured by being enamelled, or if the centre of the ring is inset with coloured gemstones, Air Force Rings have especially strong visual appeal. The initials or name of the person who will wear an Air Force ring can usually be engraved or etched on the band. A personalized Air Force is a uniquely appropriate way to reflect a person’s service, either past or present. “Above All.” The motto of the Air Force and its proud and faithful members who fly above us every day. Members of the Air Force deserve a uniquely appropriate way to show us their pride in their skill, their history, and their dedication. An Air Force ring.
