What Exactly Can a 3-Stone Diamond Ring Be Used For?
Category: 3 Stone Engagement Rings Answers
I wanted to buy my girlfriend a 3-stone diamond ring instead of a promise ring because I havent seen any promise rings that liked. I like the 3-stone diamonds because they use bigger diamonds, and the just look a lot better than promise rings. MY question is... is it okay for me to give her a 3-stone diamond ring even though we arent even engaged yet? OR is it mainly for married couples? Can i use it as a promise of engagement like a promise ring? Because i know the 3-stone stands for "PAST-PRESENT-FUTURE"... Thanks!

i think it's very sweet you want to get your girlfriend a promise ring. now in my head, a promise ring can be any shape and color you want it to be. so if you want to get her a 3-stone diamond, go ahead. Typically the girl does not wear the ring on her ring finger so it should not be mistaken as an engagement ring.
has your girlfriend even dropped any hints on what she might like? some girls like huge rings while others like simple rings so they do not get caught on their clothes.
and when you think about it, a past present and future ring sorta applies. you are giving it to her as a promise towards the future.
So i say go for it.
do not give it to her if u r not engaged
Promise rings aren't overly flashy for a reason. That is because they are only a promise to get engaged. That way, if things change you don't lose out much, and for you to build up on the engagement ring and then bigger for the wedding. Don't get her this 3 stone ring for a promise ring. That is great for the engagement.
You can definitely use it as a promise ring. I think she will really appreciate something so exquisite. Just make sure that the three stones are of equal size, because if the middle stone is bigger, it can be mistaken for an engagement ring. The three-stone with a bigger center stone is a popular design for engagement rings these days.
The 3 stones can be used for the 3 rings of marriage....
The Engagement Ring
The Wedding Ring
and The Suffer Ring
It can be used for whatever you and your girlfriend want to use it for. As long as you are willing to pay the price, go for it.
its mainly for couples that are married. you could always get her a ring that a jeweler doesnt call a promise ring. dont get her something that looks like an engagement ring. maybe a birthstone ring (thats what my sister has for a promise ring) or a pearl, ruby, etc.
The three stone ring was designed to extract money from guy's wallets. Money from your past, your present, and your future.
Um... if you are making such big promises why not go ahead and be engaged. Diamond rings cost money not matter how big the ring. I just dont understand the whole promise ring deal and how it slipped in as the step before engagement. I mean a promise is just as big of a commitment, you know? Why not buy the three stone diamond ring, get engaged and have a long engagement. No one said you HAVE to get married in a year or in 6 months. Me and my fiancee will be engaged for a year and a half... nothing wrong with it we just didn't want to jump in. Skip the promise and make her the ultimate promise.
If you give her that big of ring as a promise ring... you'll have to get an even bigger one when you actually propose
Just a thought!
traditionally the promise ring is supposed to be understated and replaced by the engagement ring.
However, if your giving her a promise ring she obviously loves you and trusts your judgement. Make sure she KNOWS its a promise ring before you pull it out. But I am sure she will love it because it has your personal touch and you spent time piking it out. Sounds gorgeous to me, I say any ring can be a promise ring - just tell her before you show it to her or she might thinks your proposeing proposing
good luck buddy your girl sounds LUCKY
Traditionally, The 3 stones Represent The past, The Present and the Future
It's just a 3 stone ring. My HTB gave me one before we were married.
The whole Past, Present, Future thing is just a recent marketing ploy to sell more of them and has nothing traditional to do with the design of the ring at all. Its just like the marketing strategy they came out with that circle necklaces represent your eternal love so now everyone has one.
I think it would be a perfect promise ring!!! Your past, your present, your future together! It doesn't have to be just for married people! D@mn..i would love if my b/f would give me one of them!
Yes, I think it would be OK as a promise ring. They are traditionally used as an anniversary band, but I think it owuld be a very generous promise ring. Another idea would be a cluster ring, one that has a cluster of smaller diamonds. You can get a large cluster ring for fairly inexpensive. Get engaged when you're ready, the promise ring is a very nice gesture until then.
wait untill engagement time
I recently got engaged and I have a 3 stone ring.
I say wait until wait untill you are ready to get engaged and thenm get her a ring. promise rings are pointless.
I think you do what you want!!!! Remember if you get her that as a promise ring she will expect alot out of an engagement ring. Why dont you just pop the question?
If you are going to do that make sure she knows it is like a promise ring. That many diamonds of any good size are going to look like an engagement ring to most anyone. If you want the three stone idea buy one with smaller stones if it's a promise ring, then when you actually ask her to marry you buy a bigger one.
You can give it to her for whatever reason you want!!
You are in a relationship with this girl, and you were apparently looking for a promise ring, so OBVIOUSLY you have a past, and a present, and are apparently looking forward to a future.
I don't see how it is unfitting.
My engagement ring has three large stones because my hubby likes the past-present-future rings. You don't *have* to do anything any sort of way. Everyone has their own preferences, and a gift such as jewelry can have it's own PERSONAL meaning. So do whatever you want dear!!! I LOVE my 3-stone ring....so I'm sure your girlfriend will too!!!!
for getting married only!!!
if you know what a promise ring is, then you know its not supposed to be flashy. (just a promise)
so if you're not ready to be engaged, then dont get the 3-stone ring.
Wow that sounds like a pretty big ring. Why can't you propose to her with it?
You can give her whatever you want, but wouldn't the down payment to a new home be cheaper than this ring????
i hate 3 stone rings as engagement rings.. i see them as more promise/anniversary rings. def. get her one and tell her something sweet about how your past led you to her, your present is amazing because of her, and your future will be even better b/c she will one day be your wife
Absolutely!! My boyfriend bought me a 3-stone diamond ring for a promise ring and I absolutely love it! Plus think about it this way, isn't a promise ring a promise to be engaged at some point?? She will love it believe me. My promise ring is sooo much better than some of my girlfriend's promise rings, and even a few engagement rings! She'll love the attention.
