As its name implies, the cocktail ring, which rose to prominence during the 1940s and ’50s, was tailor-made for parties, holiday and otherwise—think about it: No matter whether the gathering is convivial or boisterous, chances are you’ll be holding a Champagne or martini glass aloft, a moment that always looks better with a bit of bling on the third finger of your right hand. With fashion trends firmly rooted in bright, brilliant colors, the season’s selection of finger baubles is sure to be the toast of this cocktail-driven town.
