3 Carat Moissanite 925 Sterling Silver Ring

Classic solitaire design featuring a striking 3.00 ct round brilliant moissanite set in 925 sterling silver. Below you’ll find easy measuring instructions, material details, model specifications, a care guide to keep it looking beautiful, and style tips for wearing and pairing the ring.

How to measure

Measure your ring size (at home)

1. String or paper method — wrap a thin strip of paper or non-stretch string snugly around the base of the finger, mark where it overlaps, then measure that length in millimetres. This is the finger circumference.
2. Convert circumference to diameter (if needed) — diameter = circumference ÷ π (approx. 3.1416). Use the chart below to find the closest US size.
3. Measure an existing ring — measure the inside diameter of a ring that fits the intended finger (measure across the centre from inner edge to inner edge). Use a ruler or, for best accuracy, calipers.
4. Visit a jeweller — for the most accurate fit, have your finger sized professionally (especially if you are between sizes or the ring will be worn on colder/warmer days).

Quick ring size chart (approximate)

Stone size — what “3 carat” means

Carat is a measure of weight, not exact diameter. For a round brilliant cut, a 3.00 carat moissanite is typically about 9.3–9.5 mm in diameter (approximate range depending on cut proportions). To verify the actual stone size, measure the maximum table-to-edge diameter with calipers or consult the product specification from the seller.

Materials

Moissanite (center stone)

• Composition: silicon carbide (SiC).
• Origin: lab-created; consistently conflict-free and eco-friendly compared with mined gems.
• Durability: very hard — approx. 9.25 on the Mohs scale — excellent for everyday wear.
• Optical properties: high brilliance and fire; refractive index higher than many gemstones, which gives lively sparkle.

925 Sterling Silver (band)

• Composition: 92.5% pure silver alloyed with other metals (typically copper). Look for the "925" hallmark inside the band.
• Finish: bright, high-polish finish; many pieces are given a thin rhodium plating to enhance whiteness and resist tarnish (plating may wear over time).
• Care notes: sterling silver is durable but can tarnish with exposure to sulfur compounds, sweat, and certain household chemicals.

Model information

• Style name: Classic Round Solitaire (3.00 ct moissanite)

• Hallmark: stamped "925" on the inner shank to indicate genuine sterling silver.
• Available sizes: typically offered in standard US sizes; check the listing for exact available sizes.
• Notes: exact dimensions and weight may vary slightly by production run and finger size. Refer to the seller’s spec sheet for precise measurements for a given SKU.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Daily wear: remove the ring when doing heavy manual work, cleaning with harsh chemicals, swimming in chlorinated pools, and when applying lotions or cosmetics to reduce buildup and exposure to chemicals.
• Cleaning — gentle method:
  1. Soak the ring 10–15 minutes in warm water with a few drops of mild dish soap.
  2. Gently brush under the stone and in the setting with a soft toothbrush.
  3. Rinse under warm running water and dry with a lint-free cloth.
• Silver care: use a soft silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish from the band. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive polishing that could thin any plating.
• Plating caution: if the ring has rhodium plating, chemical dips and ultrasonic cleaners can remove plating — consult a jeweller before using stronger cleaners or ultrasonic baths.
• Storage: store separately in a soft pouch or lined jewelry box to avoid scratches. Anti-tarnish strips can help slow silver tarnish.
• Maintenance: have prongs checked every 6–12 months by a jeweller to ensure the stone is secure. Re-rhodium plating can be done professionally if the finish begins to fade.

Style Tips

• Engagement & statement: the 3 ct centre stone makes a bold engagement or right-hand statement ring — keep other fingers simple to let it stand out.
• Stacking: pair with thin, plain sterling silver bands or a pavé wedding band for balance. Curved or contoured bands can nest alongside the solitaire if you want a bridal set look.
• Metal pairings: coordinates beautifully with white metals (sterling silver, white gold, platinum). For contrast, wear alongside warmer tones like rose gold accents or a mixed-metal stack.
• Jewellery set: add small moissanite studs or a pendant with similar cut to create a cohesive look for formal events.
• Proportions: if you have a slender finger, a thinner band highlights the centre stone; if you prefer more presence, add one or two slim companion bands to increase visual weight without overwhelming.

Note: Measurements and finishes are approximate and can vary slightly by production batch and ring size. For precise measurements for a specific SKU, refer to the product specifications provided with the listing.
