Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ring solid metal or plated?

The ring is rhodium plated over .925 sterling silver. Rhodium plating is a surface finish over the base rather than solid rhodium, creating a bright white, reflective surface and shielding the metal underneath from wear.

What does the 9mm stone size describe?

The ring’s 9mm stone size describes its genuine sapphire-colored cubic zirconia, which is radiant cut and held in a prong setting. Prongs grip a stone at a few points and leave the rest open, allowing more light to reach it from the sides than a closed setting.

Which ring sizes are offered?

The ring is available in Size 10, Size 5, Size 6, Size 7, Size 8, and Size 9.
