Shonda 1.8ct Ruby CZ Rhodium Cushion Classic Statement Ring

Highlights

• Prong settings leave more of the cubic zirconia open to light from the sides than a closed setting.
• Cushion and trillion cuts bring two distinct cut styles to the ruby-colored cubic zirconia.
• The bright white, reflective finish comes from rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass).

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the same facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• A lead free alloy is formulated without lead.
• The rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) surface can wear through after years of wear and may need replating by a jeweller.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the surface layer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ring made from?

The ring is rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass), with a bright white, reflective finish that resists tarnish and shields the metal beneath it from wear. The surface a wearer sees and touches is the finish, while the alloy forms the piece beneath it.

What do the cuts and prong settings mean for the stones?

Ruby-colored cubic zirconia appears in cushion and trillion cuts, with a 4 Mm stone size and 1.8 ct total carat weight. A prong setting grips a stone at a few points rather than enclosing it, allowing more light to reach it from the sides than a closed setting.

Which ring sizes are available?

The available sizes are Size 10, Size 5, Size 6, Size 7, Size 8, and Size 9. The 2.2mm width is a separate measurement from the ring size itself.

How to Care for Your Shonda 1.8ct Ruby CZ Rhodium Cushion Classic Statement 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 surface layer.
3. Have a jeweller replate the piece if the finish wears through after years of wear.
