Channel Set Princess Cut Ring

Highlights

• Channel setting keeps the round cubic zirconia between metal walls without prongs to catch on clothing.

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the same facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• The channel setting seats stones in a groove between two metal walls and has no prongs to catch on clothing.
• The rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish is a surface layer that can wear through over years of wear.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the ring solid metal or plated?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass), so rhodium is its surface finish rather than solid metal throughout. The lead-free alloy provides its underlying form, while rhodium creates a bright white, reflective surface. Because it is a plated piece, the finish can wear through over years of wear and can be re-plated by a jeweller.

How does the channel setting affect the stones?

The ring uses a channel setting for its round cubic zirconia. This type of setting seats stones in a groove between two walls of metal, rather than using prongs. It leaves no prongs to catch on clothing and accompanies 8.8 ct total stone weight; each accent stone measures 3 (mm) X 3 (mm).

Which sizes are available?

The listed size options are Size 10, Size 5, Size 6, Size 7, Size 8, and Size 9. These are individual available options rather than a continuous size range, so the piece is not identified in sizes between those listed.

How to Care for Your Channel Set Princess Cut 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 rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface.
