The Labor Day Jewelry Sale, Up to 50% Off Storewide
For Labor Day, every collection at Aquamarise is reduced at once — up to 50% off storewide, with no code required. Prices are as marked on each product page, so the number you see is the number you pay, from the first click to checkout. The markdowns run through September 7 and apply across engagement rings, gemstone rings, couples ring sets, wedding bands, necklaces and earrings, with pieces starting from $69.
A storewide sale is rarer than it sounds in jewelry. Most "sales" fence off a corner of slow stock and call it an event. This one covers the working catalog — the same rings that ship every week of the year — which is why the sensible way to shop it is to start from the piece you already wanted and simply pay less for it.
A Jewelry Sale Where the Price Is the Only Thing Reduced
A ring in this sale is the same ring, from the same production run, in the same metal, as the one that sold at full price last month. Pieces are not remade to a lower spec for a promotion, and nothing here is seconds, samples or returns stock. The discount is applied directly to each piece rather than through a code at checkout, and every order still ships with the free ring box and complimentary engraving that come with full-price orders.
That distinction — sale price, never sale quality — is worth dwelling on, because jewelry discounting has trained shoppers to expect a catch. Here the construction is unchanged: solid 925 sterling silver alloyed all the way through, vermeil that meets the FTC's legal standard, and stones set by hand and checked before dispatch.
Engagement Rings on Sale: Affordable, Not Cheap
There is a real difference between an affordable engagement ring and a cheap one. Cheap rings are plated base metal with hollow shanks and glued stones; they photograph well and fail within a year. Affordable, done properly, means removing cost from places that do not affect longevity — using moissanite, lab-grown and natural colored stones instead of mined diamond, and selling directly instead of through a jeweler's markup.
Our engagement rings for women follow the second path, and during the sale the math gets friendlier still. If the choice between stones is the sticking point, our guide to non-traditional engagement rings lays out the trade-offs properly, and moissanite engagement rings — Mohs 9.25, more fire than diamond — are where most first-time buyers land.
Rings on Sale by Gemstone: Moss Agate to Sapphire
The catalog is gemstone-led, so the sale is too. Moss agate — green dendritic inclusions in translucent chalcedony, no two stones alike — anchors the nature-inspired settings. Moonstone brings its blue adularescence, aquamarine and morganite cover the cool and warm ends of the beryl family, alexandrite shifts color between light sources, and white and blue sapphire, at Mohs 9, are the closest thing to a diamond substitute in daily wearability.
The permanent ranges live at gemstone rings, moss agate jewelry, moonstone jewelry and aquamarine rings — everything in them carries the same storewide reduction while the sale runs.
Sterling Silver, Vermeil and Ruthenium: What the Sale Price Buys
Most of the sale is solid 925 sterling silver — 92.5% silver alloyed with 7.5% copper throughout, so there is no surface layer to wear through and no base metal to turn skin green. Yellow gold vermeil and rose gold vermeil cover the warmer settings; vermeil is a legally defined term in the US — at least 2.5 microns of 10K or higher gold over sterling — which is a materially different product from gold plating over brass. Black ruthenium, a platinum-group metal, produces the true gunmetal finish in the darker designs.
If you want the metal question settled permanently, solid gold engagement rings and solid gold wedding bands are made to order in 14K and 18K — and this storewide event is one of the few times they are reduced too.
Worth knowing: the discount is on the piece itself. No code, no minimum order, no cart timer — and returns, exchanges and support are identical to full price. Nothing on this page is final sale unless it is engraved.
How to Shop a Storewide Sale Without Missing Your Size
Storewide pricing is finite even though the designs are not: a ring can sell out of your size for the duration of the event and reappear at standard price afterwards. Know your size before you browse — the ring size guide takes five minutes — and if you are between sizes, size up, because size exchanges are free within 14 days.
Shopping as a pair? Matching couples' rings are the strongest value in the sale, since both rings carry the markdown at once. Men's rings and wedding bands cover him separately, best sellers shows what consistently works, and jewelry clearance holds discontinued designs at their final prices — those never come back.
Labor Day Sale FAQs
Do I need a discount code for the Labor Day sale?
No. The Labor Day sale is up to 50% off storewide with no code required — prices are as marked on every product page, and checkout applies nothing further because nothing further is needed.
When does the Labor Day jewelry sale end?
The sale runs through Monday, September 7. Individual sizes sell out before the end date more often than not, so the reliable moment to buy is when your size is in stock.
Is everything really included in the storewide sale?
Yes — up to 50% off applies across the catalog: engagement rings, couples ring sets, wedding bands, gemstone rings and men's rings, with pieces starting from $69.
Are sale items final sale?
No. Sale purchases follow the same 14-day returns and free size-exchange terms as full-price orders. The one exception is engraved pieces, which are cut to order.
Is the jewelry in the sale lower quality?
No. It is identical stock from the same production runs — solid 925 sterling silver, vermeil meeting the 2.5-micron FTC standard, or black ruthenium over sterling. The discount changes the price and nothing else.
Do sale orders still get the free gifts?
Yes. Every order ships in a free ring box, complimentary standard engraving is included where offered, and US shipping is free — the same as at full price.
Will sterling silver turn my skin green?
No. Solid 925 sterling is 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper alloyed throughout. Green skin is associated with cheap plated base metals, not genuine sterling, vermeil or black ruthenium.
What is gold vermeil, exactly?
A legally defined US standard: at least 2.5 microns of 10K or higher gold over a sterling silver base — materially different from gold plating over brass. Browse rose gold rings for the warm-toned half of the sale.
Is moissanite a good engagement ring stone?
Yes. Moissanite sits at 9.25 on the Mohs scale and has a higher refractive index than diamond, which is why it throws more fire. See moissanite engagement rings in the sale.
Which sale gemstone is toughest for everyday wear?
Sapphire, at Mohs 9. Moissanite follows at 9.25 among created stones, then quartz and Herkimer diamond at 7, with moss agate and onyx around 6.5–7 — see the full gemstone rings range.
Are couples ring sets discounted too?
Yes, and they are arguably the best value on the page since both rings carry the markdown at once. Matching couples' rings and promise rings are both included storewide.
What is the difference between the sale and clearance?
Sale pieces stay in the catalog and return to standard pricing after September 7. Jewelry clearance holds discontinued designs at their final prices — once a size sells there, it is gone.
