    The short answer

    • What is it? A ring with two little hands that hug each other around your finger.
    • What does it mean? A hug you always carry with you, from someone who is thinking of you.
    • Who is it for? Your best friend, your mum, your sister, or someone who lives far away or could use some support.

    The meaning of a hug ring

    The two hands of a hug ring embrace each other around your finger. That's why the ring stands for a hug: warm, comforting and loving. Whoever wears it always has a hug with her, even when the giver isn't nearby. That's why a hug ring is often given to let someone know you're thinking of her.

    A hug ring is also a sweet Christmas gift, and small enough for any stocking.

    How do you wear a hug ring?

    Wear a hug ring on whichever finger you like best. Because the Minna is open, you gently bend it a little wider or narrower until it fits just right. Do this carefully and not too often, so the ring stays beautiful. It looks lovely on its own, but also with a few fine rings on your other fingers.

    Styling tipPair the Minna with a slim adjustable ring like the Elia on another finger. That way the hug ring stands out without your hand looking busy.
