Setting For Three Stone Ring- Need Help

J Rough Rock Total Posts: 22 Last Post: 9/25/2005 Member Since: 10/7/2004	Hi. I've been reading the threads here for a few weeks but this is my first post. This is a great source of info for someone like me, who didn't know the first thing about diamonds a few months ago. I'm looking for help finding the type of setting my gf wants. I thought finding the right diamond would be the hard part, but it turns out that the ring itself has been more of a challenge. She wants a three-stone, yellow gold ring with engraving or filigree. Its also important to her that a wedding band be able to sit flush against the ring without needing to be custom made/"curved". I have been googleing endlessly and still haven't found quite what she wants. Here is a picture of something that comes close (the setting, not the stones). There are only two problems with this: 1) From the side view (which can't be seen in the picture) there are gold hearts under the stones which I don't think she'd like. 2) The wedding band would have to be contoured. Most of the engraved/antique style rings that I've seen are platinum. From what I've read, platinum is a better metal for engraving/detail. Is it a bad idea to try to get engraving or scrollwork on a gold band? My second question is, is it realistic to look for a three-stone ring that a straight wedding band would sit flush against? Would getting diamonds that are set higher or getting a wider band on the engagement ring be factors that would allow a straight wedding ring to sit flush against the e-ring? If anyone can point me toward the type of ring I described, or clarify for me if it even makes sense to look for what I described, it would be a big help. Thanks! J

J---------------- J, did a search and found these two. You just described why a wedding band would sit flush against them.

I like the bottom picture you posted, though I am planning on a .9ct center stone and smaller diamonds on the side, as opposed to three of the same size. I might try to get a gold ring without engraving, since thats a lot easier to find, then look for engraving with her. Anyone have an idea of what it would set me back to have the outside of a gold ring engraved? Thanks, J
