Tension Set Engagement Ring

Highlights

• The tension setting and green round cubic zirconia define the contemporary engagement design.

Good to Know

• The rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface is the part seen and touched, while the lead-free alloy forms the base.
• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• On rings that rub daily, the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish can wear through over years of wear and can be re-plated by a jeweller.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the surface plating.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the ring made from?

The piece is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). The lead-free alloy forms the base, while rhodium plating creates the bright white surface. Rhodium is a highly reflective member of the platinum family and helps shield the metal underneath from wear.

How is the cubic zirconia set?

Green round cubic zirconia is held in a tension setting. The stone measurement is 8 (mm), and the piece has 3.4 ct total stone weight. Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones, so it returns light in the same way.

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 available choices for this design, while the 3.6 Mm width is a separate dimension of the piece rather than a size option.

How to Care for Your Tension Set Engagement Ring

1. Clean the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the surface plating.
