3 stone engagement ring designs are marvelous in terms of the hidden meaning they illustrate. Also known as a trinity or trilogy rings, they are the perfect choice for the couples who incline poetic metaphors or romantic symbolism. These engagement bands are not only distinguished in their outlook but are also appreciated to convey a sole message of commitment, love, and family values. Apart from the usually depicted meanings, they can also be exploited to signify new things depending upon a couple’s thoughts and tastes. Before explaining the metaphoric meaning of each stone, let’s just take a look at the origin of a trinity ring.
THREE STONE ENGAGEMENT RING MEANING
In the modern world’s commercial market, we first saw 3 stone engagement ring designs at the beginning of the 2000’s. There had been plenty of 3 stone rings sold up until then. However, they were more religious in nature as they represent the holy trinity. They were also gifted on anniversaries as “past present & future rings”. Someone had the idea to use 3 stone rings as an engagement ring and the symbolism gradually shifted from religious to marital. Today, whenever people talk about a 3 stone ring, they are talking about an engagement ring.

Mixed Cut Three Stone Engagement Ring
This custom engagement ring is unique for using pear shapes on the shoulders. You don’t see many three stone engagement ring designs with pears on them. We also like the elegant trellis setting. This one had a 3/4 carat center stone and 4.5×3.5mm pears, but those numbers cal ways be played with.

The three stones, sometimes, can also signify three people. It may reflect a friendship between the newlywed couple and the person presenting the ring as a gift. It has also been used to represent the bonding of 3 families. The bride’s family, the groom’s family, and the united family formed by their marriage. There really is no limit to the symbolism of a 3 stone engagement ring. You are free to add meaning to suit your personality and style.
THREE STONE ENGAGEMENT RING – MULTIPLE STYLES
At the moment, 3 stone engagement ring designs are more popular than the typical tiffany style solitaire engagement rings. One of the reasons behind their newfound popularity is the availability of various designs and styles. OK, your typical solitaire engagement rings have a wide variety in shapes and styles as well. However, the design possibilities are greater with 3 stone engagement ring designs. Depending upon the sizes, the shapes, the weights, the cuts, and the types of stones, countless looks are possible.
Antique Three Stone Engagement Ring
This 3 stone antique inspired ring hearkens back to the days of the early 1900’s, when platinum rings like this were fabricated by hand. Thank God for CAD! The center stone in our 3 stone antique engagement ring is a 7mm Cushion cut accented by Kite, Round, and Square shape stones. We also added some milgrain for an added design element.
Bezel Set Three Stone Engagement Ring
This Bezel Set Engagement Ring is definitely a unique take on the traditional 3 stone settings. The stones are bezel set by two strips of metal going around the top of one stone and then to bottom of the next, linking all 3 stones. This is definitely a modern look with its sleek lines.
Round Diamonds were typically used in 3 stone engagement ring settings, with the center stone being larger than the others. However, couples are increasingly breaking the rules with their 3 stone engagement ring designs. You are seeing diamond mixed with colored gemstones, as well as all gemstone rings. We just created a ring with round and pears shapes. So, the traditional all round stone ring has taken a back seat to more personal configurations.

STONE SIZES
3 stone engagement settings have three styles that account for the majority of rings made.
Equal sized – In this style, all the three stones are the same size. A little plain for us!
Traditionally graduated – This typically has a larger center stone, with the weight of the center stone typically being double that of the sided stones. For example, a 5mm center stone weighs a half carat, so the side stones would be 1/4 carat, or 4mm in diameter.
Slightly graduated – This style renders the center stone slightly bigger or far larger. This variation in size has no mathematical basis as with traditional graduated rings. It is more of a custom style as you can choose any size stones you want without any rhyme or reason.
The styles of 3 stone engagement ring designs are not limited only to the size of stones. Some people may like only one type of stone to be fitted in all three spots. However, others may like to explore the mixing of of stone types. For example, an emerald with side diamonds in the traditional graduation is always stunning. Mixing colored gemstones with diamonds makes for an attractive 3 stone engagement ring. Sapphire, aquamarine, and tourmaline all make excellent choices if you want a blue tone. For red, there is ruby, tourmaline, or garnet. You can find a stone for almost any color!

STONE SHAPES
Typically, 3 stone engagement ring settings come with round stones. We like to mix it up though. Just as a solitaire engagement rings can be set with round, princess, oval, cushion, etc. 3 stone engagement ring designs can also be set with multiple shapes. You can opt for the same three stones cut or even can explore mixed cut 3 stone engagement rings. Here is one with pears and a round.
This is one of our most elegant 3 stone bypass engagement ring designs as it exudes style while the ring and accents curves around the two larger accents. The center stone on this one was 5mm, but it could be made with a 4mm stone or up to 7mm. We also have it without the un-accented shanks if you feel it is a bit busy.
We know what you’re thinking: my jewelry has to be on trend and in style, right, too? Technically, no. Custom Jewelry never goes out of style because it is personal and meaningful to the wearer. This makes it even more worthwhile to have custom pendants made.
THREE STONE ENGAGEMENT RING CARE
We know! This 3 Stone Princess Cut Engagement Ring is HUGE! The center stone was 14 x 13mm. And the side stones were large enough to be featured in their own rings at 8x7x6.7mm! But it is just an example of the custom jewelry creations we make all the time. This ring would be beautiful with more normal size stones.
THREE STONE ENGAGEMENT RINGS – A FEW TIPS
- The first step if to find out the ring preferences or requirements for your future bride. If this is a surprise, ask her friends of family. They might know what she likes or doesn’t like. Observation goes a long way too. Be aware of the jewelry she already wears or looks out when out shopping. A sneakier way to try is by looking at the browsing history on her phone or computer. Many women who see a future with a partner will go and look for engagement rings just for fun! And if she uses sites like pinterest, you can see of she has pinned anything.
- If you have decided on diamond for your main stone, take some time to learn about the 4 Cs (clarity, color, carat, cut). Go to a mall store and see what the different sizes look like. Also check out the different clarity and color grades. And remember those prices…because you will pay less with us.
- Decide on the shape or shapes you want to use. Round brilliant cut diamonds are by far the most popular. Other common shapes include the oval and the square or rectangular princess cut and cushion cut. There are also a few fancy cuts such as the asscher or shield that aren’t as popular. They have a premium on their price and have a smaller selection as well.
- Decide on a budget. If you have a lower budget, fear not. Lab diamonds and moissanite make excellent choices to keep the price tag down. It can even make sense to use those options over low-quality diamonds. Moissanite is not diamond but it looks so much like diamond it requires a special tester to differentiate the two. It is created in a lab and guarantees quality. Moissanite is available in various shapes, sizes, and colors and is an excellent diamond replacement.
- After covering the basics, you will need to find a suitable jeweler? The answer is simple, be calm! Please don’t just go to the mall! Do some research instead. There are tons of people making custom jewelry. Check out their portfolios and see if they can make what you are wanting. And do not forget to check the online reviews. There may be different forums or social media that will help you find various opinions about a store. But you can save yourself some time if you just allow us to create your engagement ring!
