Zircon 925 Sterling Silver Double Cross Bypass Ring

How to measure — get the perfect fit

Accurate sizing ensures comfort and keeps the double‑cross design centered on your finger. Use one of the two simple methods below.

1) Measure an existing ring (best when you own a well‑fitting ring)

1. Place the ring flat and measure the inner diameter (straight across the center) in millimetres with a ruler or caliper.
2. Match that inner diameter to the size chart below to find the corresponding US ring size.
3. If your ring has a wide band (6 mm or wider) choose a half size larger for comfort.

2) Measure your finger

1. Wrap a strip of paper or non‑stretch string around the base of the finger. Mark where the ends meet.
2. Measure the length of the paper/string marking in millimetres — this is the finger circumference.
3. Use the circumference value to choose the nearest size from the chart below (or divide circumference by π to get the inner diameter).
4. Measure at room temperature, at the end of the day (fingers are slightly larger), and avoid measuring cold fingers.

Quick sizing tips: If you fall between two sizes, choose the larger one. Bypass designs can offer slight flexibility but cannot substitute for a proper fit; resizing may be possible but is more complex on open/shaped bands.

Materials — what this ring is made of

• 925 Sterling Silver: "925" means the metal is 92.5% pure silver alloyed with other metals (commonly copper) for strength. Look for a .925 or "STERLING" stamp inside the band. Sterling silver polishes to a bright shine but can tarnish over time when exposed to air, moisture or chemicals.
• Zircon (stone accents): The listing uses "Zircon" to describe the stones. Many fashion pieces use cubic zirconia (a lab‑made diamond simulant, Mohs hardness ~8–8.5) but some use natural zircon (a distinct natural gem, Mohs ~6–7.5). If you need the exact type (natural vs synthetic), check the product details or contact the seller. Stone settings are commonly prong or pavé style — inspect the listing photos or product spec for confirmation.
• Plating (if any): Some sterling silver jewelry is rhodium‑plated to enhance shine and reduce tarnish. If this piece is plated, the product page will state it — plating affects care (do not use abrasive polishes on plated surfaces).

About this model — design & practical notes

The Double Cross Bypass Ring features a bypass (open‑shank) band with two cross motifs that face or overlap each other, each set with sparkling zircon accents. The bypass construction gives the ring a flowing, contemporary look and can offer a small degree of give, but the piece is intended to be worn at the correct size for comfort and stability.

Expect a polished finish, hallmarking (.925) on the interior of the band, and small, carefully set stones. Because decorative tops (cross motifs with stones) can add weight to the ring head, consider wearing it on a finger that balances the design (middle or index finger often works well) to reduce spinning.

Care Guide — keep it lovely longer

• After wearing, wipe the ring gently with a soft lint‑free cloth to remove oils, lotion and perspiration.
• Routine cleaning: soak in warm (not hot) water with a drop of mild dish soap for a few minutes, then gently brush with a soft toothbrush, rinse and dry thoroughly.
• Avoid chemicals: remove before swimming, cleaning, applying perfume, lotion, or hair products. Chlorine and household chemicals accelerate tarnish and can damage stones or plating.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh silver dips on plated pieces — these will remove plating and may damage stone settings. For heavy tarnish on unplated silver, use a jeweler’s silver polish following the product instructions.
• Avoid ultrasonic or steam cleaners for pieces with glued settings or delicate/natural zircons — when in doubt, consult the seller or a jeweler.
• Store in a dry, separate pouch or box (anti‑tarnish bags are ideal) away from other jewelry to prevent scratches and reduce tarnish.
• Have prongs and settings inspected by a jeweler periodically (every 6–12 months) to ensure stones are secure.
• If resizing is needed, consult a professional — bypass or open shank rings can usually be altered but resizing may affect the design and stone positions.

Style tips — how to wear it

• Wear this ring alone as a statement piece or stack it with thin, plain sterling bands for a layered look without competing with the double cross motif.
• Pair with matching sterling silver accessories — a simple chain with a cross pendant or small zircon studs complements the theme without overdoing it.
• For evening looks, add a polished silver cuff or slim bangle to echo the clean lines of the bypass design.
• Mixing metals is modern — wear this silver ring with rose‑gold or yellow‑gold accents for contrast, but keep surrounding pieces minimal to let the crosses stand out.
• Because the double‑cross top can be slightly wider or more decorative than thin bands, try it on the middle or index finger for better balance and visual impact.
• For gifting: include a small care card and a soft cloth so the recipient knows how to keep the sterling silver bright.
