The 4th/ring finger is the least used finger which makes it the best finger to put a ring on. Lesser chance of damaging or losing the ring.

It's the medicinal finger or magic finger in most cultures... that's why we wear the ring there. If you wanted to put the ring on the most useless finger, you'd put it on the little finger.

I just read it somewhere in the internet, and I find it logical.

As for the small finger, we sometimes use it to feel or touch something through small holes and the ring might get stuck if it's on the small finger.

is there any significance whether it is place sa right or left finger?

Ha-ha! Sabi nga nila, yung 4th finger tawag nila, ring finger.

Yung middle finger, baligtad naman......"finger ring".

It may be more practical, but the real reason is more tradition than pragmatism.

Though... from years of wearing a wedding ring... you can still scratch it a lot or catch it on things no matter what finger it is on...

It has something to do daw with the vein particularly in the left ring finger that goes directly to the heart. That's why we wear the wedding ring on the fourth finger of our left hand, and eventually became a tradition.
