1 Carat Moissanite 6-Prong Twisted Ring

Classic, secure 6‑prong setting with an elegant twisted shank and a brilliant 1.00 ct moissanite center (round brilliant ≈ 6.5 mm). Below are clear measurement instructions, material & model details, a care guide, and styling tips to keep your ring looking lovely longer.

How to measure

Tools you may need

• Plastic or metal ring sizer (preferred) or a printable ring size chart
• Flexible measuring tape or non‑stretch string/paper strip and a millimeter ruler
• Fine ruler with millimeter marks or digital calipers (for most accurate measurements)
• Good lighting and a magnifier (optional)

Measure your finger (best method)

1. Measure at the end of the day when your fingers are warm and at a normal temperature — fingers are smallest in the morning and can swell in heat.
2. Wrap a thin strip of paper or non‑stretch string around the base of the finger. Mark where it overlaps. Measure that length in millimetres — this is the inner circumference.
3. Compare the circumference to a ring size chart (or divide by π to get the inner diameter: diameter = circumference ÷ 3.1416) and pick the nearest standard size.
4. If your knuckle is larger than the base of the finger, measure both and choose a size between them (or choose the larger size for easy fit); wide bands typically require a slightly larger size (about 0.25–0.5 size up).
5. Measure 2–3 times and use the average. If between sizes, choose the larger for comfort.

Measure an existing ring

1. Place the ring flat on a ruler and measure the inside diameter across the center in millimetres (use calipers for best accuracy).
2. Compare the inside diameter to a ring size chart to determine the corresponding size.
3. Alternatively, use a printable ring size chart by placing the ring directly over the printed circles to find the matching inner circle.

Stone and band measurements

• 1.00 ct round moissanite — typical diameter ≈ 6.4–6.6 mm (commonly quoted as ≈ 6.5 mm for a standard round brilliant).
• To measure the stone: use calipers to measure across the stone’s girdle (widest visible point).
• To measure band width: measure the visible top of the shank across its widest part in mm (many twisted bands are ~1.6–2.5 mm depending on size).

Materials

Moissanite (center stone)

• Composition: silicon carbide (commonly lab‑grown for jewelry use).
• Appearance: exceptional brilliance and fire; often shows more dispersion (“fire”) than diamond.
• Durability: very hard — about 9.25 on the Mohs scale — excellent for daily wear.
• Optical properties: high refractive index (≈ 2.65–2.69) and strong dispersion, giving a lively sparkle.

Typical metal options (check product listing for exact metal)

• Platinum — very durable, naturally white, hypoallergenic, best for long‑term daily wear.
• 14K / 18K Gold (white, yellow, rose) — classic choices; white gold is often rhodium‑plated for a bright white finish (replating may be needed over time).
• Sterling Silver or Vermeil — more budget‑friendly; sterling silver may tarnish and vermeil is gold‑plated silver (avoid harsh chemicals).
• If the ring is plated or vermeil, avoid prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals and frequent polishing to preserve the finish.

Model information (design & features)

• Center: 1.00 carat moissanite (round brilliant), approximate diameter ≈ 6.5 mm.
• Setting: 6‑prong — provides secure hold and balanced symmetry; ideal for round stones.
• Shank: twisted/intertwined band — offers a modern, textured silhouette and extra visual interest.
• Band profile: typically a slim to medium width to showcase the stone — approximately 1.6–2.5 mm (varies with ring size).
• Finish: usually high polish; white metals often rhodium‑plated for a bright white look.
• Sizing & customization: offered in standard sizes; contact the seller for custom sizing, metal choices, or matching wedding band options.

Care guide — keep it lovely longer

1. Everyday care: remove the ring before heavy manual work, using harsh chemicals (bleach, chlorine), swimming in chlorinated pools, or gym activities that could knock the stone or bend prongs.
2. Routine cleaning (safe for moissanite and most metals): soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap for 5–10 minutes, gently brush under the stone and around prongs with a soft toothbrush, rinse well and pat dry with a lint‑free cloth.
3. Ultrasonic cleaners: moissanite itself is generally safe in an ultrasonic, but do not use ultrasonic cleaning if the ring has loose prongs, glued elements, or plated surfaces — when in doubt, ask a jeweler.
4. Avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals that can damage metal finishes or plating.
5. Polishing & plating maintenance: white gold may require rhodium replating every 1–2 years depending on wear; platinum occasionally needs professional polishing to remove surface scratches.
6. Inspections: have prongs and settings professionally checked every 6–12 months (or sooner if the ring is bumped) to ensure the stone remains secure.
7. Storage: store the ring separately in a soft pouch or individual compartment to prevent scratches and keep it away from other pieces that may abrade the surface.

Style tips

• Simplicity: wear the twisted six‑prong solitaire alone for a timeless, elegant engagement look that keeps attention on the center stone.
• Stacking: pair with slim plain or textured bands — a thin contour or twisted band complements the shank without overwhelming it.
• Wedding set: choose a contoured wedding band that nests against the twisted shank, or select a matching twisted band for a coordinated set.
• Metal pairing: warm skin tones often suit yellow or rose gold; cool tones pair well with white gold or platinum. Mixing metals can create a modern, curated vibe.
• Jewelry balance: complement the sparkle with simple stud earrings and a delicate bracelet or pendant so the ring remains the focal point.
• Everyday vs occasion: moissanite’s durability makes this ring suitable for daily wear; for special occasions, add bold complementary pieces (statement cuff, chandelier earrings) as desired.
