Three Stone Engagement Rings

Three stone engagement rings are the best way to showcase each phase of your love story: the past, the present, and the oh-so-bright future. They’re also stunning symbols of commitment, with three glittering gemstones artfully set for a luxurious ring.

A three stone engagement ring is a bold style for the bride who doesn’t mind standing out. Outfitted with side diamonds that bolster the look of the center stone, this engagement ring style is designed to dazzle with plenty of room for your own unique spin. Accommodating a wide range of shapes, it’s common to use side stones with a different cut than the center diamond to create an interesting contrast. From contemporary elegance to retro inspired pieces, three stone engagement rings are the ultimate symbol of any epic love.

FAQs About Three Stone Engagement Rings

What is a 3 stone engagement ring?

A three stone engagement ring generally features a center stone flanked by two complimentary side stones. The side stones can help make the center diamond look larger, especially when set lower than the middle stone. This makes three stone engagement rings an excellent option when working with diamonds that have lower carat weights.

What do 3 stone engagement rings mean?

Three stone engagement rings symbolize the past, present, and future of your love story. Each of the three stones represents the phases of your relationship. The center is the star of the show, serving as a reminder to live in and fully appreciate the present moment.

What wedding band looks best with a three stone engagement ring?

Since three stone engagement rings are elaborate in their own right, they look wonderful when paired with simple wedding bands. If your three stone engagement ring features an elongated center stone, you may even want to opt for a curved wedding band for a stackable effect.

Rather add to your bling? Eternity and channel set wedding bands enhance the brilliance of a bridal set, especially when paired with three stone engagement rings.

How big should the center stone be on a three stone engagement ring?

The size of the center stone on a three stone engagement ring comes down to personal preference. But in general, a one carat center stone looks stunning, especially when paired with side stones that are one-half or one-third of the size (i.e. a one carat center stone with half-carat or 0.33-carat side stones). This ratio can be applied to any three stone engagement ring for a balanced look and feel.

However, if you’re working with a tighter budget, you can opt for a smaller center stone since the side stones help make it appear larger. If you prefer larger gems, moissanite and lab grown diamonds are wonderful alternatives to natural diamonds that still provide exceptional brilliance and durability for a fraction of the cost. This will allow you to have a significantly larger center gem for your three stone ring without the exorbitant price tag.

How much is a 3 stone engagement ring?

The price of a three stone engagement ring depends on the 4C’s of the chosen diamonds (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight), as well as the precious metal used for the band and the intricacy of the design. Diamond carat weight has the most significant impact on the cost of a three stone engagement ring, so if you’d prefer larger stones at a lower price point, consider moissanite or lab grown diamonds.

Additionally, you can bring the cost of the ring down by choosing white gold, as opposed to platinum, or less expensive metals like 14 karat yellow gold (rather than 18 karat). Simple designs with smaller gems will cost less than elaborate three stone engagement rings that include sizable diamonds.

When were three stone rings popular?

Three stone engagement rings were a popular choice between 1820 and the 1950s, spanning several eras, such as the Georgian, Victorian, and Art Deco, as well as the period before and after World War II. However, three stone rings were majorly popularized by diamond powerhouse De Beers in the early 2000s, leaning into the past, present, and future symbolism to give new meaning to trilogy engagement rings.
