Sapphire Cubic Zirconia Drop Ring

Highlights

• The drop design pairs sapphire-colored cubic zirconia with round stone cuts.
• Prong settings leave the sides of the stones open to light.

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• A lead-free alloy is formulated without lead, a metal restricted in jewelry by law.
• The rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish is a surface layer that can wear through over years of daily rubbing.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ring solid metal or plated?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). Its base metal gives the piece its shape and weight, while the rhodium plating forms the bright white, reflective finish at the surface. Rhodium plating is a finish over the alloy rather than solid rhodium throughout the ring.

What do the stone measurements refer to?

The 1.6 (mm) X 1.6 (mm) measurement refers to one individual accent stone rather than the full ring. The 7.5 ct figure is the total stone weight across its cubic zirconia. The stones are round, sapphire-colored cubic zirconia held in prong settings.

How to Care for Your Sapphire Cubic Zirconia Drop 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) finish.
