Thank you all for suggestions!
The difference between small and large is 3 mm. Small are 10 mm and large are 13 mm. I am leaning towards large now..


Hate to break it to you, but the triple rolling ring seems to have its origins in Eastern Orthodoxy. The original model was capitalized upon by Cartier, and foolish people who are irrationally obsessed with brand names will spend multiple times what they need to to buy a design that was originally taken from a religious wedding ceremony. If you want the OG, look for Russian orthodox wedding rings.


Hate to break it to you, but OP already explained its origins.

These look like what Susan Lucci playing soap diva Erica Slezak wore on All My Children in the '80s.

The only jewelry I have ever yearned for is Van Cleef & Arpel's.
Sadly, too expensive for me.

Op I like the mixed metals and think that’s classic and pretty. Go for the larger size. I am also allergic to knockoffs - I would prefer to get something totally different instead.

I am about 100% sure you could find a knockoff dupe on Amazon or eBay for a lot less. But if you love the Cartier and can afford it, why not?

Honestly, you can find a high quality knock-off for a quarter of the price. Trinity jewelry is quite popular and no one can tell that you're wearing Cartier vs Blue Nile. I personally like trinity jewelry. It's simple, versatile, and not ostentatious or screaming name-brand (like the Alhambra line).

I like them, OP. I have a trinity ring and I love it. DH surprised me with it after the birth of our third child so it’s very meaningful to me.

I think the larger ones showcase the three tones better. It is hard to see all three metals in the smallest hoops.
