Moissanite Contrast 925 Sterling Silver Solitaire Ring

How to measure

Getting the right measurements ensures a comfortable fit and accurate stone information. Use one of the methods below depending on what you have at hand.

1) Measure a ring you already own

1. Choose a ring that fits the same finger comfortably (wearing position matters).
2. Measure the inside diameter from edge to edge (across the centre) with a ruler or digital caliper — record in millimetres (mm).
3. Match that diameter to the size chart below to find the corresponding ring size.

2) Paper/string method (no tools required)

1. Cut a thin strip of paper or a piece of non-stretchy string (~3–5 mm wide).
2. Wrap it snugly around the base of the finger. Mark where the paper/string overlaps.
3. Lay the paper/string flat and measure the length from the start to the mark — that is the finger circumference (mm).
4. To get the inner diameter: diameter = circumference ÷ π (approx. 3.1416). Then use the chart below to find your size.
5. Measure at the end of the day when fingers are warm; if your knuckle is larger than the base, check both and pick a size that slides over the knuckle but fits the base comfortably.

3) Professional or printable sizer

For the most reliable result, use a printed ring size chart (ensure scale prints at 100%) or visit a jeweller for a free sizing. If you are between sizes or the band is wide, consider the larger half-size.

Measuring the center stone and band width

• Center stone diameter: measure across the widest point (girdle to girdle) with calipers. Use the diameter to estimate carat (round brilliant approximate):

• Band width: measure across the outside edges (top view) with calipers; note whether the band tapers — this affects comfort and fit.
• Resizing: 925 sterling silver can often be resized by a jeweller, but complex designs or contrast finishes may limit how much can be altered. Ask the seller for available options.

Materials

Moissanite (center stone)

• Composition: lab-created silicon carbide (SiC). Ethically made and generally conflict-free.
• Appearance: very high brilliance and fire; often displays more “sparkle” than many gemstones due to higher dispersion.
• Durability: Mohs hardness ≈ 9.25 — extremely durable for daily wear (still softer than diamond but harder than most other gems).
• Color & clarity: available in colorless to near-colorless grades; lab-grown moissanite is typically eye-clean.

925 Sterling Silver (band)

• Composition: 92.5% pure silver + 7.5% other metals (commonly copper) — look inside the shank for the "925" stamp.
• Finish: “Contrast” styling usually refers to a combination of high-polish and darkened/oxidized or blackened details to highlight the center stone.
• Care notes: sterling silver can tarnish over time from exposure to sulfur and moisture; some rings are rhodium-plated for extra shine and tarnish resistance — plating will wear and can be reapplied professionally.
• Allergies: sterling is widely tolerated, but if you have severe metal allergies check the full alloy composition with the retailer.

Model information

Key model features you can expect from the Moissanite Contrast 925 Sterling Silver Solitaire Ring:

• Design: classic solitaire silhouette that emphasizes a single centre moissanite.
• Setting: secure prong setting (commonly 4 or 6 prongs) to maximize light return and visibility of the stone.
• Metal: 925 sterling silver with contrast details (oxidized/blackened grooves or brushed vs. polished surfaces).
• Hallmark: stamped "925" inside the band to verify metal.
• Sizing & customization: available in standard sizes; many sellers offer resizing or custom sizing where feasible.
• Finish options: some rings may be offered with rhodium plating or alternate finishes — check the specific product listing for exact options and measurements (stone size, band width, and weight).

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

Simple, regular care will keep your solitaire sparkling and your silver bright:

Daily care

• Remove the ring before heavy work, sports, or activities that could hit the stone or band.
• Avoid contact with harsh chemicals (household cleaners, bleach, chlorine) and cosmetics, perfumes, or hairsprays — apply those before putting on jewelry.
• Remove before swimming in pools or hot tubs (chlorine can affect metal finishes).

Regular cleaning (safe home method)

1. Soak the ring for 10–20 minutes in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap.
2. Gently brush under the stone and inside the setting with a soft toothbrush to dislodge dirt.
3. Rinse thoroughly with clean warm water and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Tackling tarnish & plating

• For unplated sterling: use a silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish. Avoid abrasive pastes that can remove intentional contrast or plating.
• For rhodium-plated pieces: avoid aggressive polishing. If plating wears, have a jeweller re-plate the ring to restore the finish.
• If the ring has oxidized/blackened details, be careful not to polish those areas away — ask a jeweller for restoration if needed.

Periodic professional care

• Have prongs and settings inspected every 6–12 months (or sooner if you notice movement).
• Professional cleaning and re-plating (if applicable) will restore original luster — frequency depends on wear (often every 1–2 years for heavy daily wear).
• If the stone becomes loose, stop wearing the ring and have a jeweller repair it immediately.

Do / Don’t quick list

• Do store separately in a soft pouch or lined box to avoid scratches.
• Do remove when applying lotions, perfumes, or when swimming.
• Don’t use abrasive cleaners, baking soda, or toothpaste on plated/contrast finishes.
• Don’t attempt major repairs or re-sizing at home — consult a professional jeweller.

Style Tips

• Everyday elegance: wear the solitaire alone for a clean, modern look — perfect for everyday and work.
• Stacking: pair with thin plain or pavé bands. A slim wedding band sits neatly next to a solitaire; choose a matching profile for a seamless stack.
• Mixing metals: sterling silver works well with white gold or platinum pieces. For a bolder look, combine with warm rose-gold tones to create contrast.
• Occasions: the high sparkle of moissanite elevates evening wear — pair with darker fabrics (navy, black) to make the stone pop.
• Minimalist styling: match with small moissanite stud earrings and a delicate chain for a cohesive, polished set.
• Hand care: keep nails and cuticles neat — manicured hands show off a solitaire to best effect.

Note: exact stone size, prong count, band width and available finishes can vary by listing. For product-specific measurements or customization options, refer to the product details on the listing or contact the seller.
