Oval Moissanite Three Stone Pear Side Engagement Ring

Oval Moissanite Three Stone Pear Side Engagement Ring

An oval moissanite sits between two pear cut side stones, each turned so its point faces down the shoulder and its rounded end tucks against the centre. That orientation is what makes this version work: the pears echo the curve of the oval instead of fighting it, and the three stones read as one continuous shape rather than three separate ones. The band is left completely plain and polished so nothing distracts from the trio. Three stone rings are traditionally read as past, present and future, which is why they are a common choice for both proposals and anniversaries. Made to order in Surat, India, in ten metals and four centre stone sizes.

Design and craftsmanship

Each pear is held in three prongs and set slightly lower than the oval, which keeps the centre stone clearly dominant while still letting the sides catch light on their own. The side stones are scaled to the centre, so a 5 carat oval receives proportionally larger pears than a 2 carat one and the ring keeps the same balance at every size. The shank is a plain rounded band of about 1.9 mm that runs clean from the shoulders to the base, which makes the ring easy to resize and easy to pair with a wedding band. Every piece is hand set and finished by our bench in Surat.

How moissanite compares to a diamond

Moissanite is silicon carbide, not carbon, so it is a different material from a diamond rather than a lower grade of one. It measures 9.25 on the Mohs scale against a diamond at 10, which makes it hard wearing and well suited to daily use. Its refractive index is higher than a diamond, so it returns more colored fire, which is the quality most buyers notice first. In a three stone design the side stones amplify that effect because they sit at a different angle to the centre and catch light at different moments. This ring is sold as moissanite and is never described as a diamond.

Metal options

Available in 925 sterling silver, 10K yellow gold, 10K rose gold, 10K white gold, 14K yellow gold, 14K rose gold, 14K white gold, 18K yellow gold, 18K rose gold and 18K white gold. Yellow gold, as photographed, warms the whole ring and makes the colorless stones look brighter by contrast. White gold gives a cooler, more classical three stone look. Rose gold suits those who want something softer. For everyday wear 14K is harder and more scratch resistant than 18K, and 925 sterling silver is the most affordable way to try the design.

Ring size

Every ring is made to your finger size, so choose your size at checkout. We make US sizes 3 through 13, including half sizes. The plain shank means this design resizes easily later if you need it to, though ordering the correct size at the outset is always better. If you are unsure, measure the inside diameter of a ring you already wear or ask us for a free size guide.

Custom orders

We can change the side stones to trillion, round, marquise or baguette cuts, set the design with a lab grown diamond, or use a colored moissanite for the centre or the sides. We can also add a hidden halo or pave the shoulders. For any other request please contact us at https://mapplegems.com/pages/contact and we will quote it before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a moissanite ring or a diamond ring?
It is a moissanite engagement ring. The centre stone and both pear side stones are lab created moissanite, and the ring is sold as moissanite. We never describe it as a diamond.

What do the three stones mean?
The usual reading is past, present and future, which is why three stone rings are popular for engagements and for milestone anniversaries. There is no obligation to attach meaning to it, and many people simply prefer how the design looks.

How large are the pear side stones?
They are proportioned to the centre stone rather than fixed, so they scale up with the 3, 4 and 5 carat options. If you want a specific side stone weight, tell us before you order and we will match it.

Does a three stone ring look wider on the finger?
Yes. The three stones together cover noticeably more of the finger than a solitaire with the same centre stone, which is one reason people choose this style when they want visual size without a larger centre.

Will a wedding band sit flush against it?
Yes. The side stones sit above the level of the shank and the band itself is plain, so a straight wedding band sits flat with no gap.

Does moissanite scratch or cloud over time?
No. At 9.25 on the Mohs scale it resists scratching from ordinary contact, and its brilliance comes from the material itself rather than a coating, so it cannot fade.

How do I clean it?
Warm water, mild soap and a soft brush, paying attention to the undersides of all three stones and the gaps between them. Rinse well and dry with a lint free cloth.

How long does it take to make?
Production usually takes ten to fourteen working days, plus shipping time. Every ring is cut and set only after it is ordered.
