3 Things You Didn’t Know About Three-Stone Settings

1) Not Just For Engagements Unlike solitaire rings, which are used almost exclusively for proposals, and bands, which are strictly wedding rings, a three-stone ring, also known as a trinity or trilogy ring, can be given as a gift to a loved one on many occasions. Any moment that you want to treasure forever with your loved one is an occasion for a three-stone ring. Some people celebrate the birth of their first child with a three-stone ring; with the three stones representing the two parents and their beloved baby. Some even reset the original diamond from their wife’s engagement ring into this more elaborate setting as a surprise third anniversary gift.

2) Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow The three stones of the ring represent the past, the present and the future. This is why a three-stone setting can be a timeless, romantic gift for any occasion, from a birthday to an engagement or anniversary. Giving a loved one a three-stone ring tells her, “I treasure our history together, celebrate this perfect moment, and look forward to a long and happy life together.”

3) Have it Your Way The three stones of this classic ring offer endless opportunities for creativity and customization. The three stones need not all be the same—a traditional princess cut diamond would be accented nicely by a small baguette diamond on either side. Some people opt for colored stones such as sapphires and rubies to accent the central stone, choosing gems with personal significance to the couple. In the most popular three-stone setting, the central stone is significantly larger than the two stones on either side, although other size variations are available. Most three-stone rings are sold with the two smaller stones already set; the customer can purchase a larger diamond to set in the center setting or have his own diamond set instead.

No matter the setting or style, a three-stone ring is a classy way to maximize the “bling factor” without breaking the bank, a creative way to break out of the solitaire engagement ring trend, and above all, a timeless way to say, “I love you.”
