Platinum 3 stone engagement ring with round .50 carat lab-diamond center stone and .25 carat blue sapphire trillion accent stones.

Looking for a 3 stone engagement ring? How about one with a round center and trillion (triangle) accent stones?

The 3 stone engagement ring style has been making quite the comeback in recent years. There is something classic and lovely about having a single accent stone on each side of the center.

There are so many things to love about this design. Keep reading to see our favorite surprise feature of this ring.

The brilliant combination of blue and white.

To create a stunning contrast, our client decided to use blue sapphires as the accent stones. These are trillion shaped sapphires that have the bottom points facing horizontally toward the band.

The diamond and sapphires hug up snugly and tightly against each other. It is always important for a custom engagement to have a nice flow. One way we decided to do this was by tucking the sapphires slightly under the center diamond and having them angle downwards. As a result, a modern and beautiful three stone look was achieved.

Love Knot (Surprise!)

Knot design worked into the architecture of the ring. When looking down it remains hidden, but is revealed when look through the ring.

My client had the really cool idea of wanting to incorporate a Turkish love knot into the engagement ring. The design was to take the flat look of the knot and “bend” it down each side of the ring.

As a result, the prongs for the stones were incorporated into the middle of the knot. It’s this kind of customization that really get’s us excited!

Square Shank

A square shank, also referred to as a “European Shank”

This ring features a square shank at the bottom to help counterbalance the weight in the top of the ring. Also referred to as Euro shanks, this design is a really nice option that many people don’t know about.

What are the benefits of a square or Euro shank? The first reason people choose to get a Euro shank is so that their ring will not spin on their finger. Oftentimes when the weight of a ring in unevenly distributed on the top of the ring (due to heavy stones), the ring will have the tendency to flop from side to side. The heaviness of a square shank, especially on the corners, can act as a great counter balance.
