Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the ring made from?

The ring is rhodium plated over .925 sterling silver. The plating is bright white and reflective, helps resist tarnish, and shields the metal underneath from wear.

What stones are used in the ring?

The ring combines amethyst-colored cubic zirconia with genuine sapphire. The cubic zirconia has a radiant cut and a prong setting. The piece has 4.5 ct total stone weight.

How does the prong setting hold the stone?

Prongs hold the amethyst-colored cubic zirconia at a few points instead of enclosing it in metal. This setting leaves the rest of the stone open, allowing more light to reach it from the sides than a closed setting allows.
