Every girl when she gets engaged wants her engagement ring to be as special as possible and to symbolise the promise that the couple have made to one another. The three stone engagement ring fulfils this wish and more. Each of the three stones in the ring has its own symbol and meaning and this is perhaps why three stone diamond engagement rings are so popular.
As with any type of jewellery it makes the piece much more interesting if there is a story or a legend behind it. This is equally true for engagement rings and one of the many reasons that engagement rings are handed down from one generation to the next. Fashioning engagement rings from gold, whether it is white gold or yellow means that they
will be everlasting. Setting them with diamonds only serves to reinforce this, as diamonds are one of the hardest stones known to man and can survive most things.
These two things combined with the meaning of the three stones acts as a symbol for he couple on which to build a foundation for their future relationship together. The first stone in the ring symbolises the couples past and the time they have enjoyed and endured together. The second stone in the ring symbolises the present and the promises they have made to one another for their upcoming nuptials. The third and final stone in the ring symbolises the couples future together as man and wife. Ideal as engagement rings these richly symbolic rings also make great presents for anniversaries.
