From Wikipedia
An eternity ring, also known as an infinity ring, is a woman's ring comprising a band of precious metal (usually gold) set with a continuous line of identically cut gemstones (usually diamonds). It was marketed in the 1960s as a symbol of never-ending love, to be given by a spouse to their wife on the occasion of a significant anniversary. Because the presence of stones all the way round the eternity ring can make it cumbersome to wear, the alternative is to have the stones across the face of the ring only. This is sometimes referred to as a "half-eternity" ring rather than a "full" eternity ring. Eternity rings featuring paste gems, white topaz or a mix of stones appeared in the 18th century.
