Celebrate with Three Stone Rings

Since the first diamond engagement ring in the 15th century, the single-diamond stone design had dominated the history of engagements. For centuries, it had enjoyed undivided attention and admiration from every couple who was lucky enough to afford it.

Five centuries later, in the early years of the twentieth century, a revolutionary and completely non-traditional design of engagement ring was introduced to the public. Couples who have decided to stay together and seal that commitment with marriage now have the option to choose this unique and classic design. The three-stone diamond ring became the must-have engagement ring for modern couples. Jewelry historians opined that the three stones are a symbolism of the ‘past, present, and the future’ of a couple’s loving relationship. It encompasses the three significant periods in a couple’s lifetime that starts with the time when the couple first met and fell in love; it continues to a time when a decision to get married is agreed; and culminates in a certain period when they have both welcomed growing old together.

The symbolism is apt in that recent history has seen more separations and break-ups in relationships. In a way, having a three-stone engagement or anniversary ring does sound like a prize and yet a bonus; and a reminder that in our divorce-ridden societies, one should feel lucky to spend old age with the man/woman he/she married.

Even if it has only been introduced recently, there is no denying the design’s classic appeal.  This particular design in engagement rings echoes a longing of every couple for ‘forever-after’. It attracts a discriminating prospective groom because of its timelessness and elegance.

In later years, it has also evolved into the perfect anniversary ring, as well as, the gift that commemorates the birth of a first-born son or daughter. From the rare sparkle of diamonds, precious gemstones like emerald, sapphire and ruby have also adapted this beautiful and elegant design.

There are various cuts and settings available for three-stone engagement rings.  It can be set on gold- white and yellow- and platinum metals. Through the years, people’s unique taste and preference have  contributed to the growth of this particular ring and there is no stopping it.

The Best Diamond Rings Come In Threes

The number three is an intriguing and unique number. It is the first odd prime number, the first “lucky” prime number, and the first unique prime number. It’s so unequaled that the triangle has been labeled the only perfect figure in the mathematical world. However, this isn’t a mathematical lesson; this is the exploration of the beauty of the number three; which is no exception when it comes to jewelry. Apples of Gold offers a number of beautiful rings that come in threes including a set of 3 Tri-Color Gold Stackable Bands, a Three Stone Blue Diamond Ring, and a White Gold Men’s 3 Stone Diamond Ring.

Seen above, Apples of Gold’s 3 Tri-Color Gold Stackable 0.68 Carat Diamond Bands each have H-I Color and SI Clarity diamonds. Each band has 16 diamonds strategically placed around a colorful gold circle with hints of color in between each setting. Each band measures 1.6mm wide and when worn together an amazing cohesive effort of elegance is formed including 48 diamonds and a 4.7mm band.

Apples of Gold’s Three Stone Blue Diamond Ring in 14K White Gold is no exception to the beauty of the number three. This unique ring is different from traditional 3 diamond rings which usually centers a larger diamond in between two smaller diamonds. This ring gives you three equally beautiful blue diamonds, a total of .36 carats. These 3 diamonds are not only blue but set beautifully on a sleek and artistic band which holds each diamond like a glove.

Last but not least is my favorite ring, the 14K White Gold Men’s 3 Stone Diamond Ring. Architecturally maneuvered and aesthetically pleasing, this ring is definitely a conversation starter. This high quality ring has 3 stones that seem to melt into the architecture of the band. It fits on your finger at 6mm wide and is adorned with .21 carats of high quality H-I color and Sl1 Clarity stone.

Always remember when purchasing a diamond ring from Apples of Gold that we offer a free ring sizer and that sometimes three is not a crowd.
