3 Diamond Ring, The Kai Silver Report On 3 Diamond Rings.
3 Diamond Rings Custom Made
What are the issues related to a 3 diamond ring that differentiates the jewel from other diamond rings. The experts at Kai Silver have compiled this report based on the queries and doubts raised by jewelry lovers over the past decade. We have decided not to dilute the significance of a ring with 3 diamonds, by resorting to a sales pitch. So do expect this report to be a bit involved in various issues related to this jewel. You can contact our team at sales@kaisilver.com if you wish to have some specific diamond ring or other jewel custom made. But let us keep the sales process out of this website. As the name would suggest, a 3 diamond ring basically means a ring with 3 diamonds set in it. Generally it is assumed that no other gems would be included in such a ring. However there are no hard and fast rules when designing or buying jewelry, so do follow your fancy. The RG183 3 diamond stone ring is a good example to explain various options and features for a 3 diamond ring. The ring is shown here as a yellow gold diamond ring but could have been made in white gold too. Let us now get into a serious discussion on three diamond rings.
Metal: You should get over the notion that diamond rings can only be made in gold. The fact is that good quality diamond rings can be made in gold or sterling silver. In recent times we have seen a spurt in the demand for silver 3 diamond rings, the rising price of gold has been partially responsible for this. There are ofcourse many genuine silver jewelry lovers who love the metal for it's classic beauty and grace. A 14k or 18k 3 diamond ring could be custom made in the design of your choice. You will ofcourse have the option to choose a yellow or white gold ring with 3 diamonds. Most jewelers are more than willing to make gold diamond rings but, silver is another story.
At Kai Silver we custom make both gold and silver jewels with the same design, care and attention. You get to choose the same stones for both gold and silver jewelry. Technically every jeweler could do this but, it is the lure of higher profits from gold jewelry that decides their actions.
If you plan to get a 925 sterling silver 3 diamond ring, request for no rhodium or other plating to be used on the jewel. It is true that rhodium, gold or platinum platings done on your silver ring with 3 diamonds will give it a grand and extravagant look, however this plating will wear off after a while and your ring will appear patchy and drab at that time. A better option would be to go for an unplated silver diamond ring, then use any recommended polishing lotion or fabric to polish the tarnish that might settle on the ring.
Diamond Quality: It is interesting to see how diamond ring providers confuse buyers with complicated diamond grading terminology. While this is fine for many buyers, when you are working on a modesWe budget, follow these simple suggestions. Firstly insist on the same diamond quality for gold or silver 3 diamond rings, this presuming that your budget can handle it. Big reputed jewelry sellers sell junk quality diamonds in junk quality silver rings, this dirt cheap jewelry sold at around 70% to 80% margin! Unfortunately most jewelers including Kai Silver cannot get away with such gimmicks.
Make sure that the diamonds in your 3 stone gold or 925 silver diamond ring are genuine natural diamonds. This is presuming that you want real diamonds and not cheaper imitations. The saddest part is paying for genuine diamonds and ending up with fakes. Jewelry sellers use clever terminology to push junk imitation stones as diamonds. CZ diamonds, synthetic diamonds, lab created diamonds, simulated diamonds etc are some of these factory made fakes. Choosing a reputed jeweler will clear most of the confusion. Kai Silver is surely not the only jeweler to provide diamond rings, so do some research and work with a jeweler that makes you feel comfortable.
Unless you are on a very generous budget, choose natural diamonds that look bright and glitter to the naked eye. Not many people are going to look at your diamond ring with a high quality gemological microscope. So think twice before splurging on top quality diamonds, UNLESS you have a fat wallet allocated for the ring.
Diamond Size: When it comes to diamond size for your 3 diamond ring, most of us will agree that the larger the diamond the better the ring! Unfortunately price logistics do not work in that way when it comes to natural diamonds. Diamonds are priced per weight, the weight being measured in carats. Just for your information, a carat is 1/5th of a gram so 5 carats make 1 gram. The price of a diamond is determined by size and quality. The tricky part is that the price per carat moves up exponentially as the size of the diamond increases. This will remain true even if the diamond quality for a larger and smaller diamond is the same.
When we talk of affordable diamond rings at Kai Silver, we recommend diamonds that are less than 3mm in size. For a 3 diamond ring, you could have one of the diamonds as a 3mm or 3.5mm diamond but, choosing all three at that size might strain your budget. In any case, we suggest that you discuss your requirements with your jeweler and request for suggestions and options.
Limiting diamond size to 3mm might pose a problem when it comes to large ring sizes. Observe how the diamonds in the RG183 Kai Silver diamond ring are arranged, they are placed horizontally on the band. If the largest diamond in this gold or silver ring with 3 diamonds is 3mm, you would end up with a ring band width that is about 4mm to 5mm in the front (head) portion of the ring. But what if you wanted a diamond ring that had a ring (finger) size requirement of 10 or 12. With this large ring size a 4mm to 5mm band width might appear a bit strange. What would be much better would be a diamond ring with a band width of around 7mm or probably even 8mm. But choosing a 5mm or 6mm round or square diamond to get this band width, can be very expensive. You could expect the ring to cost around 4,000 U.S$ to 7,000 U.S$ with this diamond size. Also remember that we are referring to a 3 diamond ring, so the center diamond would not be the only diamond in the ring. All the diamonds would add to the price tag, and go beyond most budgets. Fortunately there is a better way to handle this situation. You could choose a design concept where the three diamonds are lined up vertically as opposed to horizontally on the band. So if you set three diamonds of size 2.5mm round or square vertically, the diamonds would take up a space of around 7.5mm. This will give you a chance to get a band width of at least 8mm to 9mm. And this will happen at a modest price point too. These are obviously issues that your jeweler should guide you about so, selecting the right jeweler is as important as choosing the right ring.
Meaning Of The Ring: We could write volumes about the meaning and significance of a 3 diamond ring. The fact is that the jewel could mean different things to different people. The interpretation of a ring with 3 diamonds could be defined by you. For example, the popular theme of past, present and future is best served by a ring with 3 diamonds. Engagement and wedding rings made with this theme take on an added significance. Diamonds are sturdy and durable, something that has lead to the phrase 'diamonds are forever'. It is also hoped that a marriage would last for every and be strong enough to withstand tough and sad times. In such 3 diamond gold or 925 silver rings, the center diamond that represents the present is generally larger than the two side diamonds, again based on personal likings.
Some people wear rings with 3 diamonds to celebrate a particular period or phase. For example, a husband could gift a gold or sterling silver three diamond ring to celebrate 3 years or even three decades of marriage. If this is what you want to get a 3 diamond ring for, consider using the same diamond size for all three diamonds. You can choose a diamond size of 2mm or 2.5mm if you need a modestly priced jewel.
We make dozens of 3 diamond rings each year for couples celebrating the birth of their first child. Each of the diamonds represents the mother, father and baby. The diamond size interpretation takes on an interesting concept here. Many couples choose to have equal sized diamonds in all three positions. With this, the position of the mother, child and father being represented in the ring is not very specific. There are a large number of couples who believe that, the baby is the most important part of their family life. The center diamond is then reserved for the baby and has the largest size as compared to the three diamonds.
Metal Color: Before we wind up this report on 3 diamond stone rings, we would like to mention a few things about metal color for diamond rings. White diamonds look awesome in white or yellow metal color, no doubt about that. If you are going for a gold diamond ring, choose a yellow or white gold 3 diamond ring based on what you like. A silver diamond ring will also look classic and stylish. Wearing a silver diamond ring with good design, craftsmanship and diamonds looks quite lavish. It somehow makes a statement that, you did not try to squeeze and be stingy even for a silver ring.
