Three Stone Engagement Rings

It all depends on personal choice, there is no right or incorrect ratio for a three-stone engagement ring. However, more contemporary designs have experimented with a range of varied sizes, which may appear equally as magnificent and enable the centre diamond to assume more of a main position. Traditionally, the optimum ratio has the accent diamonds at roughly 80% of the weight of the centre diamond. Personal preference is everything, therefore don't be hesitant to consider several possibilities.

A three stone engagement ring consists of three larger centre stones (Diamonds or Gemstones) that are set in a line or a cluster, typically with the middle stone of the three stone setting being the largest in carat weight.

A three stone engagement ring is a type of ring that usually has three diamonds or gemstones on it. It’s believed to symbolise the past, present, and future of a couple's love. Other interpretations of the three stones include friendship, love, and commitment, for the couple's journey together. Depending on the couple's individual beliefs and interpretations, the ring's significance may change.

Both the terms three stone and trilogy setting are interchangeable words used within the jewellery industry to represent the same style of ring. The use of these words is at the discretion of the individual and comes as a matter of preference.

A three-stone engagement ring must have similar-quality stones throughout. For a cohesive design, choose stones of the same quality. For a more contemporary style, mix and match different coloured gemstones (sapphires, rubies etc) and diamonds.

A trilogy or three-stone engagement ring can incorporate a halo around each of the three stones, depending on the design and stones used. Due to the extra diamonds or jewels, halo settings can make the ring a bit more expensive. A design with a halo surrounding each of the three stones in the trilogy setting gives the piece a more complex and refined appearance.

Three stone or trilogy rings, which also include two side stones in addition to the centre stone, are comparable to toî et moî rings. Toî et moî rings normally have two stones instead of three, and they are frequently positioned on either side of the ring band rather than in a straight line and/or with varying sizes. View Toî et moî
