ARE THREE STONE RINGS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN SOLITAIRES?
THE ANSWER
It's nuanced. The setting itself costs more. More labour and materials to secure three gems instead of one. But the diamonds can actually cost less overall. Diamond prices rise exponentially with size. A single 2.0-carat diamond costs vastly more than a 1.0-carat centre stone with two 0.5-carat side stones. Both rings total 2.0 carats. But one costs significantly less. A three-stone ring is a strategic choice. You get a larger, heavier-looking ring for less money than one massive single diamond. Provided the centre stone isn't excessively large.
