Bella Birthstone Engagement Ring in Blue

Highlights

• Prongs leave more of the cubic zirconia open to side light than a closed setting.
• Blue color and a round cut define the engagement-ring design.

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is a laboratory-grown stone cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface, which may wear through over years on rings that rub daily.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ring made from?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass), so its surface is plated rather than solid precious metal. A base-metal alloy gives the piece its shape and weight, while the plating is the surface a wearer sees and touches.

What does the 6 Mm stone size refer to?

The 6 Mm measurement identifies the cubic zirconia stone size. The 0.88 ct total stone weight describes the stones in the piece as a whole, rather than providing a separate measurement for each individual stone.

How is the cubic zirconia set?

Prong settings grip stones at a few points and leave the rest open, allowing more light to reach them from the sides than a closed setting. The ring uses prongs with blue round cubic zirconia.

How to Care for Your Bella Birthstone Engagement Ring in Blue

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.
3. Ask a jeweller about re-plating if the surface wears through over years of wear.
