1.4Ct Contemporary Dainty Rhodium Plated Clear CZ Engagement Ring

Highlights

• Prong-set clear round cubic zirconia defines the contemporary dainty look.
• The prong setting leaves more of each stone open to side light than a closed setting.

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones, so it returns light in the same way.
• The rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) construction uses a lead-free base alloy beneath the plated surface.
• On rings that rub daily, the surface layer can wear through over years and a jeweller can re-plate it.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the surface layer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the ring made from?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). The alloy forms the base, while the rhodium plating is the bright white, reflective surface layer. A base-metal alloy gives a piece its shape and weight, with the plating covering the metal underneath.

What do the 7mm & 1mm stone measurements describe?

The ring includes round clear cubic zirconia in 7mm & 1mm sizes, all held in prong settings. These measurements describe stones on the piece, while 1.4 ct is the total carat weight across the cubic zirconia. Prongs grip stones at a few points and leave the rest open to side light.

How to Care for Your 1.4Ct Contemporary Dainty Rhodium Plated Clear CZ Engagement 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) surface layer.
3. Have a jeweller re-plate the piece when daily wear has worn through the surface layer over years.
