All about the trilogy engagement ring setting and style in Harrogate
At Fogal & Barnes Fine Jewellers of Harrogate, we believe that every love story deserves a setting as unique as its journey. Today, we're delving into one of our most beloved designs: the trilogy ring, also known as the three-stone engagement ring.
The History behind Trilogy Engagement Rings
The Enchanting History Trilogy rings trace their origins back to Ancient Egypt, where the three stones symbolised the sun's journey - sunrise, high noon, and sunset - as well as life's metaphysical stages. Today, these stunning pieces represent something even more personal: your relationship's past, present, and future intertwined in precious metal and stone.
The trilogy setting has long been a favourite among those with discerning taste, including royalty. Princess Anne's blue sapphire and diamond trilogy ring and Meghan Markle's cushion-cut diamond trilogy ring (featuring stones from Princess Diana's collection) showcase the enduring elegance of this design.
Which diamond cut should you choose for a trilogy ring?
One of the most exciting aspects of selecting a trilogy ring is the ability to combine different diamond cuts to create your unique piece. At Fogal & Barnes, we offer various combinations:
- Classic round brilliant cuts for timeless elegance
- Oval and pear combinations for a contemporary twist
- Emerald cuts with tapered baguettes for art-deco sophistication
- Princess cuts for modern geometry
- Marquise cuts for distinctive drama
How do trilogy ring prices compare to solitaire rings?
Trilogy rings generally include more total carat weight than solitaire rings. However, at Fogal & Barnes, we offer various options to suit different budgets, from classic diamond combinations to mixed gemstone designs.
Which gemstones work best on a trilogy engagement ring?
While traditional diamond trilogy rings remain eternally popular, many of our clients are exploring the enchanting possibility of incorporating coloured gemstones. A stunning sapphire centrepiece flanked by diamonds creates a regal appearance, while three graduated fancy-coloured diamonds offer a unique take on the classic design.

Our expert craftsmen at Fogal & Barnes can help you explore various combinations, whether you're drawn to the traditional allure of diamonds or wish to incorporate meaningful birthstones or coloured gemstones into your design.
