High Quality Natural Moonstone 925 Sterling Silver Ring

How to measure

Choose the method that fits you best — measuring your finger or an existing ring gives the most accurate result.

1. String or paper method (finger):
   • Wrap a thin strip of paper or a non-stretchy string around the base of the finger where the ring will sit.
   • Mark the point where the ends meet, then lay the string/paper flat and measure the length in millimetres (this is the inner circumference).
   • If you prefer diameter, divide that circumference by π (≈3.14).
2. Measure an existing ring:
   • Measure the inner diameter across the centre of a ring that already fits well (use mm).
   • Compare that diameter to the quick reference below to find the nearest size.
3. Use a ring sizer:
   • Use a plastic or metal ring sizer set or request a printable ring-size chart from the seller and place a ring over the printed circles.

Helpful tips:

• Measure at the end of the day when your fingers are warm and at their largest.
• If your knuckle is larger than the base of your finger, measure both and choose a size between those measurements or the larger size.
• Wider bands typically fit more snugly — consider sizing up ½ to 1 size for wide rings.
• Repeat the measurement 2–3 times for consistency.

Quick reference (common sizes)

Materials

Natural Moonstone

• Optical effect: adularescence — a soft, bluish or silvery sheen that appears to float across the gem.
• Appearance: typically translucent to semi-opaque; color ranges from colorless/white to warm peach or gray with a blue flash.
• Hardness: Mohs ~6.0–6.5 — durable for jewelry but softer than many gemstones, so avoid hard knocks.
• Origins: commonly sourced from Sri Lanka, India, Madagascar, Myanmar and other locations; natural stones can show inclusions and character.
• Treatments: many moonstones are sold untreated; if treatment or certification is important, request details or a lab report.

925 Sterling Silver

• Composition: 92.5% pure silver with 7.5% other metals (commonly copper); the “925” stamp indicates standard sterling silver.
• Finish: may be high-polish, matte, or oxidized/antiqued depending on the design.
• Care note: sterling silver can tarnish over time when exposed to air, moisture, or chemicals; a silver polishing cloth restores shine.
• Hypoallergenic: generally well-tolerated, though a small number of people may react to alloy metals.

• Setting: bezel or prong setting designed to protect the softer stone.
• Band width: commonly ranges from ~1.8–3.5 mm (wider styles available).
• Hallmark: stamped "925" inside the band to confirm sterling silver.
• Finish: polished or slightly antiqued depending on the style.
• Weight: small sterling silver rings typically weigh between ~2–6 grams depending on size and design.

Exact dimensions, weight and the specific model code will be listed on the product details for the particular item — please check those specs for precise measurements.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Avoid chemicals: Remove before applying perfume, lotion, hairspray, or household cleaners. Chlorine and bleach will damage both the silver and the stone.
2. Remove for activities: Take off during sports, heavy lifting, gardening, and dishwashing to avoid knocks and abrasion.
3. Cleaning: Gently clean with warm water and a drop of mild dish soap. Use a soft toothbrush for crevices; rinse and dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth.
4. Polishing silver: Use a soft silver polishing cloth for the metal areas. Avoid aggressive silver dips or chemical cleaners unless the stone is removed or you are certain the cleaner is safe for moonstone.
5. Avoid steam and ultrasonic cleaners: Moonstone can have internal cleavage and may be damaged by ultrasonic or steam cleaning.
6. Storage: Store separately in a soft pouch or lined box to avoid scratches from harder gemstones. Anti-tarnish strips or pouches can help keep the silver bright.
7. Professional care: For deep cleaning, polishing, or re-finishing, use a professional jeweller who is experienced with softer gemstones.

Style Tips

• For a soft, ethereal look, pair the moonstone ring with cool-toned outfits (navy, gray, icy pastels) to enhance the stone’s blue sheen.
• Stack with thin sterling silver bands or hammered textures for a modern layered look; place the moonstone as a focal ring.
• Pair with other luminous gems like pearl, opal or aquamarine for cohesive, feminine styling.
• Moonstone works beautifully with boho and vintage styles — try it with flowing dresses, lace, suede or leather accessories.
• For evening wear, let the ring stand out by keeping other jewelry minimal and choosing fabrics that reflect light (silk, satin).
• Mixing metals is on-trend — a small rose-gold accent next to sterling silver and moonstone can add warmth and contrast.
