Default a little help re: 3 stone ring & e-ring?
Hello ladies. I am a complete newbie to TPF & this is my first post. I was hoping you would lend some advice regarding ring "etiquette".

My hubby has given me a 3 stone ring for New Year's and I am not sure which hand I am supposed to wear it on? It is a 2+ct center with 1ct sides 18K WG. It is a rather traditional prong setting, very feminine.

My engagement ring is very contemporary, a 1.3 ct set on a 1cm wide, 18K YG band. It is similar to the Etoile but has a full Plat bezel setting. My wedding band is 18K YG w/ Egyptian hieroglyphs on it, also very wide. I wear them together on my ring finger, they are not very feminine or traditional.

Do you think it odd to wear an elegant & traditonal prong setting on one hand in WG & my modern 2 wide banded YG rings on the other?

I have attached some photos for a better visual. Apologies in advance, the quality of the photos are a bit blurry.


Thanks for the advice ladies!

Lovely ring! Happy New Year to you!!

I don't think it matters that one is Traditional and the other Modern.

Many Ladies have "Traditional" engagement rings but wear Modern cocktail rings on the other hand - so yours would be just the opposite.

WOW what a nice gift! I don't think it matters either way, whoever is looking will be blinded. I like that your wedding set is nontraditional, it is very unique. The traditional side of me is loving your new ring.

Thank you so much for the advice & compliments! I do not wear any other jewelry aside from my wedding rings, so it was very surprising to receive a new piece of jewelry.
Happy New Year to you as well & thanks again!
