How to measure

Use these quick, reliable methods to find the correct ring size and measure the ring components (stone size, band width, profile) before ordering or resizing.

Measure your finger (recommended)

1. Wrap a thin strip of paper, a non-stretch string, or a soft measuring tape around the base of the finger. Make sure it can slide over your knuckle comfortably — not too tight, not too loose.
2. Mark the overlap point with a pen, lay the strip flat and measure the length in millimetres (mm).
3. Use the circumference (mm) to find your ring size using the conversion table below. Measure at the end of the day (fingers are largest) and avoid measuring when hands are cold.

Measure an existing ring that fits

1. Place the ring flat and measure the inside diameter across the center with a ruler or caliper (mm).
2. Convert the inside diameter to a ring size using the table below (or measure the inside circumference = diameter × π).

Measuring the stone, band and setting

• Stone diameter: use a caliper to measure the visible face of the centre stone across its widest point. A round 1.00 ct moissanite is approximately 6.4–6.6 mm in diameter (typical guide).
• Band width: measure the band across its top surface (in mm). Common widths: delicate 1.5–2.5 mm, classic 2.5–3.5 mm, bold 4 mm+.
• Setting height/profile: measure from the inside of the band to the top of the stone to know how high the ring sits; low-profile settings are better for active wear.

Materials

Moissanite

Moissanite is silicon carbide (SiC), most commonly produced in the lab today. It is prized for its brilliance and durability: Mohs hardness around 9.25 (very scratch resistant), a high refractive index (extra sparkle) and strong dispersion (fire). Moissanite is typically near-colorless and is considered an ethical, conflict-free alternative to mined diamonds. Clean with warm soapy water and a soft brush; ultrasonic cleaning is usually safe for moissanite but check settings first.

925 Sterling Silver

"925" indicates sterling silver composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (commonly copper) to increase strength. Sterling silver delivers a bright white finish but can tarnish over time. Many sterling pieces are rhodium-plated to enhance whiteness and reduce tarnish—check the product details for plating. Sterling silver is generally hypoallergenic but alloys can contain trace metals; contact the seller if you have metal sensitivities.

Model information

Overview: 1 Carat Moissanite set in 925 sterling silver — a classic, brilliant solitaire-style ring designed to offer diamond-like sparkle with ethical sourcing and a polished silver finish.

• Centre stone: 1.00 ct round moissanite (approx. 6.4–6.6 mm for a round cut).
• Metal: 925 sterling silver (may be rhodium plated for extra whiteness—confirm on the product page).
• Setting: classic prong-style (commonly 4 or 6 prongs) that elevates the stone for maximum light return—profile will affect daily wear and comfort.
• Band style: polished comfort-fit band in a timeless silhouette (typical band width 1.8–3.0 mm; check listing for exact width).
• Hallmarks: look for the "925" stamp inside the band for sterling silver authentication.
• Note: exact prong count, band width and finish may vary by model—refer to the product specification on the listing for precise measurements.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Simple routine care will keep your moissanite and sterling silver ring looking its best.

1. Daily: remove the ring when doing chores, using harsh chemicals, swimming in chlorinated pools or working out to avoid knocks, abrasions and chemical exposure.
2. Cleaning: soak the ring for 5–15 minutes in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap, gently brush under the stone and around settings with a soft toothbrush, rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth.
3. Silver tarnish: use a silver polishing cloth to remove light tarnish. If the piece is rhodium plated, avoid abrasive polishing that may wear the plating—ask a jeweller for safe cleaning or re-plating.
4. Ultrasonic/steam cleaners: moissanite itself tolerates ultrasonic and steam cleaners, but do not use them if the setting is fragile or has glued elements—check with a jeweller first.
5. Storage: store the ring separately in a soft pouch or lined box to prevent scratches and reduce exposure to air (anti-tarnish strips help slow silver tarnishing).
6. Maintenance: have prongs and settings checked by a professional jeweller every 6–12 months; get loose stones re-secured promptly.
7. Resizing/repairs: sterling silver is resizable, but significant resizing or repeated adjustments can affect plating and finish—use an experienced jeweller.

Style Tips

• As an engagement piece: a single 1 ct moissanite solitaire offers a diamond-like look at a fraction of the cost—pair with a thin pavé or plain wedding band for a classic set.
• Stacking: choose slim bands (1.5–2.5 mm) or a contoured band to sit flush against the centre ring; mix textures (matte vs. polished) for visual interest.
• Metal pairing: sterling silver complements white metals. For a warm contrast, try pairing with rose-gold-plated accents or warm gemstone bands.
• Daily wear: choose a lower-profile setting for active lifestyles to reduce snagging; higher settings create more presence but need more care.
• Finger proportions: narrow bands and smaller settings visually elongate shorter fingers; wider bands balance longer fingers—select band width accordingly.
• Complete the look: coordinate with moissanite studs or a simple pendant for matching sparkle without overpowering the ring.
