Sterling Silver Cushion Onyx 3-Piece Jewelry Set Ring Earrings Pendant 18 Inch Cable Chain

Highlights

• The set includes a ring, earrings and a pendant, all finished in rhodium plated .925 sterling silver.
• Each piece is set with natural cushion-cut black onyx held in a prong setting.
• The larger onyx stones measure 10 x 10 and are heat treated; the smaller pair measures 6 x 6 and is color treated.
• The pendant hangs from an 18 inch sterling silver cable chain with a spring ring clasp.
• The earrings close with a push back.

Good to Know

• The three pieces are coordinated in metal and stone, offering a ring, earrings and pendant together.
• The prong setting leaves more of each cushion-cut onyx stone open to light than a closed setting.
• The pendant's 18 inch cable chain and spring ring clasp are sterling silver to match the rest of the set.
• The rhodium plating sits over sterling silver rather than being solid precious metal, so the plating can wear through over time.
• The larger onyx stones are heat treated and the smaller pair is color treated, which some shoppers may prefer to know before buying.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the set made from?

Every piece - the ring, earrings and pendant - is rhodium plated over .925 sterling silver. Rhodium plating gives a bright white finish and helps resist tarnish, while the sterling silver beneath provides the base structure of each piece.

What stone is set into each piece, and how is it held?

Each piece is set with natural cushion-cut black onyx in a prong setting; the larger stones are heat treated and the smaller pair is color treated. The prongs grip the stone at a few points, leaving the rest of it exposed so light can reach it from the sides.

How long is the chain on the pendant, and what clasp does it use?

The pendant comes on an 18 inch sterling silver cable chain that closes with a spring ring clasp, a small sprung circle that stays unobtrusive on a fine chain.

How should the set be cleaned and stored?

A soft cloth and, when needed, warm water with a drop of mild dish soap are enough for routine cleaning, followed by a thorough dry. Store the pieces dry and closed, and keep them away from chlorine and perfume to slow tarnishing.
