How to measure

Measure your ring size (easy at-home methods)

1. Using a ring you already own: Place the ring flat on a ruler or digital caliper and measure the inside diameter (edge to edge across the center) in millimetres. Use the conversion table below to find the corresponding size.
2. Paper/string method: Wrap a thin strip of paper or non-stretchy string around the base of your finger. Mark where it overlaps, then measure the length in millimetres — this is the inner circumference. Convert circumference to ring size using the table below.
3. Visit a jeweler or use a ring sizer: For best accuracy (especially for wide bands), have a jeweler measure or use a verified ring-sizing tool.

Tips: measure at the end of the day when fingers are warm, measure over the knuckle (if applicable), and if your size is between two, choose the larger size. Wider bands typically fit slightly tighter — consider going up half a size for bands over 4 mm wide.

Measuring the center stone

Use a digital caliper to measure the diameter across the stone's girdle (widest point). A standard round 1.00 ct moissanite is approximately 6.3–6.5 mm in diameter (exact measurement depends on cut and maker).

Materials

Moissanite

• Chemistry: silicon carbide (lab-grown)
• Brilliance: higher dispersion than diamond, giving exceptional “fire” and sparkle
• Hardness: about 9.25 on the Mohs scale (very durable for everyday wear)
• Ethics: lab-created and conflict-free

925 Sterling Silver

• Composition: 92.5% fine silver + 7.5% other metals (commonly copper)
• Finish: polished sterling silver (some pieces may be rhodium-plated to enhance whiteness and reduce tarnish)
• Care note: sterling silver can tarnish over time and benefit from regular gentle cleaning and proper storage

Model information

• Design: classic solitaire-style ring engineered to maximize the moissanite's brilliance; secure prong setting for light exposure.
• Center stone: 1.00 ct round brilliant moissanite (approx. 6.3–6.5 mm)
• Band: 925 sterling silver, polished finish; typical band width ~1.8–2.5 mm (may vary by production batch)
• Fit: manufactured to standard ring-size ranges; comfort-fit profiles are common for daily-wear models.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Daily care: Remove ring before heavy manual work, chlorine exposure (swimming pools/hot tubs), and when using household chemicals.
2. Routine cleaning: Soak in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap for 10–15 minutes. Gently brush under the stone and around prongs with a soft-bristle toothbrush. Rinse thoroughly and dry with a lint-free cloth.
3. Silver polishing: Use a soft silver-polishing cloth for the band to remove light tarnish. Avoid abrasive pastes that might scratch the metal or stone.
4. Ultrasonic/steam cleaners: Moissanite is durable and often tolerates ultrasonic cleaning, but sterling silver finishes (or rhodium plating) and delicate settings can be affected. Use ultrasonic/steam cleaners only if the piece’s care instructions explicitly allow it or consult a jeweler.
5. Storage: Store separately in a soft pouch or lined compartment to avoid scratches. Anti-tarnish strips or sealed storage will slow silver tarnishing.
6. Maintenance: Periodically check prongs for tightness; re-rhodium plating (if plated) may be recommended every 1–3 years depending on wear to restore shine and whiteness.

Style Tips

• Wear alone for a clean, minimalist engagement look or pair with a slim pavé or contour wedding band for extra sparkle.
• Stack with mixed metals (rose or yellow gold) for contrast — moissanite’s strong brilliance pairs beautifully with both warm and cool tones.
• For everyday wear, choose a lower-profile setting to reduce the chance of catching; for dramatic evening sparkle, an elevated setting maximizes light entry.
• Match the ring to your personal palette: silver and white metals flatter cool skin tones; mixing in warmer metals can complement warm undertones.
