Three Stone Diamond Rings

Yes. Because the three stones are positioned together, that means the band can be resized larger or smaller if necessary. This should be undertaken by an expert goldsmith who will be able to adjust the size of the ring without leaving any trace that it's been altered. If you want to avoid the hassle of getting a ring resized, make sure you measure your ring size carefully before you buy. A ring should fit snugly but not feel too tight or too loose. Any jewellers will be able to tell you your true ring size using a properly calibrated ring sizer.

Three-stone diamond rings often have an 'emerald-cut' diamond as the focal gem, flanked on either side by two slightly smaller stones. An emerald-cut diamond is rectangular and is cut in steps rather than star-shaped facets. This is the same cut used on fine-grade emeralds. The truncated corners are less vulnerable to chipping. The centre of the stone or 'window' is a rectangular pavilion that allows the inner beauty of the stone to shine out. Because the steps are larger, it's essential to choose a diamond with as few flaws or inclusions as possible. The flat nature of the facets will show up any imperfections within the gem.
