About Topaz
Topaz occurs in a wide color range — from colorless to imperial orange-pink (the most valuable), as well as blue, yellow, and brown. Most commercial blue topaz is colorless natural topaz that has been irradiated to produce the vivid sky, Swiss, or London blue tones. Topaz scores 8 on Mohs (very durable for daily wear) and is the November birthstone (alongside citrine) and the 4th- and 23rd-anniversary gems.
About 14K Rose Gold
14K rose gold gets its romantic pink hue from a copper-rich alloy — typically around 25% copper combined with silver. The color is warm, slightly less intense than 10K rose, and ages beautifully without tarnishing or requiring rhodium replating. Rose gold has been a defining engagement-ring trend of the last decade, pairing especially well with morganites, peach sapphires, and oval and cushion-cut diamonds. It flatters most skin tones and reads as both vintage and modern.
About the Three-Stone Setting
A three-stone setting features a center diamond flanked by two matched side stones — symbolizing past, present, and future in modern engagement-ring tradition. The side stones are typically smaller versions of the center diamond shape (or contrasting shapes like trillions or pear cuts flanking a round). Three-stone settings carry strong heirloom value and were popularized in modern times by Meghan Markle's engagement ring. They visually present a larger overall footprint than a solitaire of equivalent center weight.
