Good to Know

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

• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the rhodium plating.
• On a ring that rubs daily, the plating can wear through over years of wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ring solid metal or plated?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass). The plating forms the surface finish, while the underlying alloy provides its shape and weight. A lead-free alloy is formulated without lead, which is restricted in jewelry by law.

What does the prong setting mean for the cubic zirconia?

The round cubic zirconia is held in prongs. A prong setting grips a stone at a few points and leaves the rest open, allowing more light to reach it from the sides of the stone than a closed setting allows.

How to Care for Your Caroline 2.3ct CZ Rhodium Statement Ring

1. Clean the piece with soap, water, and a soft cloth.
2. Avoid polishing compounds and dips, which can thin the rhodium plating.
3. Have a jeweller re-plate the piece if its finish wears through over years of wear.
