Shonda 1.8ct Sapphire CZ Rhodium Cushion Classic Statement Ring

Highlights

• Cushion and trillion cuts bring two distinct geometric stone shapes to the design.
• A prong setting leaves much of a stone open to light from the sides.
• Classic, anniversary, and wedding styles define the ring’s design character.

Good to Know

• Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to facet proportions used for fine gemstones.
• Cubic zirconia is denser than most natural stones, so a given width weighs more in carats.
• Rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) is a surface finish that can wear through over years on rings that rub daily.
• Polishing compounds and dips can thin the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

What metal is the ring made from?

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

Which cuts does the cubic zirconia have?

The ring includes cushion and trillion cuts in sapphire-colored cubic zirconia. Cubic zirconia is laboratory-grown and cut to the same facet proportions used for fine gemstones, so it returns light in the same way. The cubic zirconia has a total weight of 1.8 ct.

How to Care for Your Shonda 1.8ct Sapphire CZ Rhodium Cushion Classic Statement Ring

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) finish.
3. Have a jeweller re-plate the ring if wear over years thins the rhodium plated over lead free alloy (brass) finish.
