Asscher Cut Engagement Ring

Highlights

• Asscher and round cubic zirconia cuts bring two distinct cut styles to the bridal, classic design.
• Prong settings leave more of each stone open to light than a closed setting allows.

Good to Know

• The lead free alloy is formulated without lead.
• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• Rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) is a surface layer over the base metal.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the plating, and rings can need re-plating over years of wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ring solid metal or plated?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass), so the bright white surface is a plating over a lead-free alloy base. A base-metal alloy gives jewelry its shape and weight, while the plating is the surface a wearer sees and touches.

What does the 9.5 (mm) stone size refer to?

The listed 9.5 (mm) measurement identifies the stone size for the ring. Its cubic zirconia includes Asscher and round cuts in prong settings, with 4.07 ct total stone weight across the piece. The 4 Mm measurement refers to the ring width.

Which ring sizes are offered?

The ring is offered in Size 10, Size 5, Size 6, Size 7, Size 8, and Size 9. These are the listed size options for the piece, rather than a continuous size range.

How to Care for Your Asscher Cut Engagement Ring

1. Clean the piece with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface.
3. Ask a jeweller about re-plating if the surface wears through over years of wear.
