Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ring made from?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). The base-metal alloy gives the piece its shape and weight.

What do the listed stone sizes mean?

The ring lists two stone sizes: 7mm and 1.25mm. These measurements identify the cubic zirconia stone sizes used in the piece; they do not describe ring size. The cubic zirconia is round and prong set, and the piece has 1.56 ct total carat weight.

How does the prong setting hold the cubic zirconia?

A prong setting grips cubic zirconia at a few points, leaving the rest open so light can reach it from the sides. On this ring, the round cubic zirconia is prong set, with stone sizes of 7mm and 1.25mm.

How to Care for Your 1.56Ct Contemporary Rhodium Plated CZ Solitaire Ring

1. Clean the piece with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips because they can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface.
3. Have a jeweller re-plate the piece if its surface wears through over years of wear.
