Baubles, Bling and Three Stone Rings
The classics never go out of style… diamond stud earrings, gold hoops, eternity bands, tennis bracelets – the list goes on and on. One of my favorite traditional pieces is the three stone ring. The symbolism is simple: one stone for the past, one stone for the present and one stone for the future. One single sentence ensures that the three stone ring is perfect for any occasion. Whether it be an engagement, an anniversary or a right-hand ring, the power of three is hard to deny.
Recently we acquired a brand new beauty that reminded me of an old favorite. This new ring is made from 18-karat yellow gold. A bright white oval diamond sits center stage, weighing .78 carat. It twinkles and shines with every turn of the hand.
Flanking the diamond is a striking pair of matched oval rubies. Combined, these two gems have a total weight of .87 carat. Exhibiting the color of ripe bing cherries, these rubies are small but mighty. The color jumps out of the ring. Surrounding the three stones and cascading down each shoulder are forty-four round brilliant diamonds.
These diamonds have a combined weight of .34 carat. The overall petite size of this ring is so appealing. It’s beautiful on the hand… I cannot stop looking at it. It’s moderately priced at $4,650.00.
Next to this yellow gold stunner is that white gold beauty. Also made in the traditional three-stone style, this 18-karat white gold ring is equally striking. The center stone is an unheated 1.64 carat oval ruby. Deep red with just a hint of purple, this gemstone is the color of a fine merlot. A pair of half-moon diamonds sit on either side of the ruby offering .23 carat of sparkle. Completely encircling the center stone, each side stone and shoulder are sixty round brilliant diamonds.
With a total weight of approximately .75 carat, these diamonds add the perfect amount of brilliance to this ring. Shown from behind, the filigree wire-work of the under gallery and the engraved patterns on the shank come to life, adding a vintage flair to this otherwise modern ring.
This yellow gold ring is smaller and more delicate than that white gold ring. Moderately priced at $4,650.00. this oval diamond and ruby ring sits beautifully on the ring finger of the left hand. It would work equally well as an anniversary or right hand ring. Not to be forgotten and priced at $6,450.00, that oval ruby and half moon diamond ring is a showstopper on the hand and would also be the perfect choice to celebrate any important occasion. Both are available on our site now. I have just one question. Which do you prefer? This yellow gold charmer or that white gold dazzler? This or that?
