How to assemble a Turkish Promise Ring (6 band puzzle ring)
Loading...
Uploaded by thedanceoftime on Nov 26, 2010
This video was inspired by a friend so she could see how to assemble an heirloom from her father.
There are various versions of the Turkish puzzle ring, from the puzzle design to the number of bands: 4, 6, and 8. The foundation of the design is based on four (4) bands. The six (6) band version in essence has the two middle or outer bands "split" into two. For the one here, when assembling the bands 2&3 and 4&5 are treated as pairs. Based on the marking in this one it's from Turkey / Middle East or Europe.
History:
This type of ring is attributed to Turkey the history of it's design is uncertain. Some say it was designed by a nobleman for his beloved so that when they were aprt she would remain faithful.
Others believe it was a clever Turkish artisan designed it to sell to U.S. military men stationed there to buy a souvenir for a loved one.
Another possibly history is that the father of the bride would give it to the bridegroom on the morning of his wedding day, since in a traditional Turkish wedding the groom has a long wait while the bride engages in several rites and rituals while preparing for the evening ceremony. The puzzle ring would occupy the time and possibly calm the anxious groom.
Today, both women and men give the ring as an expression of friendship / love, or as a promise for faithfulness. It's a beautiful symbol of interconnected as one.
