A vintage-inspired bridal set with a stone that refuses to sit still. The elongated kite at its center is a genuine color-shift alexandrite — green and teal in daylight, deep purple and violet under warm light — and because the cut is faceted and openly set, that famous change is easy to watch for yourself. Engagement ring and matching band arrive together in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish, framed by cubic zirconia accents.

An antique-inspired set for two rings, one story
The rhombus kite is an unexpected, elongated shape that draws the eye and lends the set a vintage, almost heirloom feeling. An antique-style finish deepens the intricate detail, so it reads like something passed down rather than newly bought. Worn together, the engagement ring and its matching band frame the alexandrite from both sides for a complete, balanced silhouette.

The engagement ring
Holds the kite-cut color-shift alexandrite in an antique-inspired setting — the statement piece and focal point of the set.
The matching band
A complementary band that nests against the engagement ring to complete the vintage silhouette, and pairs with pieces from our alexandrite wedding bands.
The lab-grown alexandrite
The center is a genuine lab-grown alexandrite, a 7 x 11 mm kite of roughly 1.6 carats. It is true chrysoberyl, grown with the same chromium chemistry that gives natural alexandrite its rare color change, only cleaner, brighter and far more attainable than a mined stone of this size. Color will read differently depending on your light, so each ring feels one of a kind in the hand. Curious how it works? See our note on whether synthetic alexandrite changes color, and for the wider view our guide to lab-grown versus natural alexandrite.
Cubic zirconia accents
Simulated diamonds trace the setting, adding a crisp ribbon of sparkle that makes the color-shift kite glow even richer. The cubic zirconia is cut for bright fire and keeps the antique detailing delicate. Prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents? Message us and we can craft the set to order — and yes, we can also make it in solid gold or platinum on request.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
Both rings are crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium — the same bright precious metal used on fine white gold. That rhodium plating gives a mirror-white luster and a protective layer that resists tarnish and everyday scratches, so the set keeps its freshly polished glow. It is the detail that lets sterling silver wear like far finer jewelry.
What the alexandrite set symbolizes
Alexandrite’s shifting colors have long stood for transformation, balance and a love that evolves — a fitting emblem for two rings that complete each other. It is also one of June’s birthstones, making the set a meaningful choice for a summer wedding or anniversary. For couples building a look together, it complements our alexandrite couples rings, and if you are choosing between gems, our comparison of alexandrite versus sapphire is worth a look.

Sizing & care
Choose your size at checkout. If you are between sizes or unsure, we are happy to help — and if the fit isn’t right, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. To keep the color shift vivid and the rhodium finish bright, remove the rings before showering, swimming or applying lotions, and store them in the velvet box when not worn. A soft, dry cloth brings the shine right back.
Frequently asked questions
Does the alexandrite really change color?
Yes. The faceted kite is openly set, so the shift is clearly visible — green and teal in daylight, moving to purple and violet under warm indoor or candle light. Each ring looks a little different depending on where you are.
Why does alexandrite shift color?
Trace chromium in the stone absorbs light differently under different sources. Blue-rich daylight makes it read green; red-rich warm light makes it read purple. It is a genuine optical property of alexandrite, not a treatment.
Is the alexandrite genuine?
Yes, it is 100% genuine lab-grown alexandrite, chemically identical to mined alexandrite but ethically created and far more attainable. Only the small accent stones are cubic zirconia.
Does this come as a set?
Yes — it includes the kite-cut alexandrite engagement ring plus a matching band designed to nest alongside it. The two rings frame the center stone from both sides for a complete bridal look.
Why choose a kite cut?
The elongated rhombus kite is a distinctive, vintage-leaning shape that stands apart from round and oval stones. Its facets also show off the alexandrite color shift beautifully.
What are the accent stones?
They are simulated diamonds (cubic zirconia), cut for bright, crisp sparkle around the setting. If you would prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents, contact us and we can make the set to order.
Can I have it in gold or platinum?
Yes. The set is offered in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish, and we can custom-make it in solid white, yellow or rose gold, or platinum. Message us for a quote.
What does the rhodium finish do?
Rhodium is the same precious metal used on fine white gold. It gives the silver a mirror-bright shine and adds a protective layer that keeps the rings looking freshly polished.
Will sterling silver turn my finger green?
No. Genuine 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish will not turn your skin green. Green marks come from low-quality or fake metals, never from real sterling silver.
Is it durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. Alexandrite sits around 8.5 on the Mohs scale, well suited to everyday wear with normal care. Avoid hard knocks and remove the rings for rough activities to keep them pristine.
Can it be engraved?
Yes. You can add a personal engraving of up to 16 characters at checkout — a date, initials or a short message. Engraved pieces are final sale, so please double-check spelling.
What size should I order?
Select your ring size at checkout. If you are unsure or between sizes, contact us for guidance. Resizing is available and starts from a modest fee.
Does it arrive gift-ready?
Every order ships in a free luxury velvet gift box and is backed by our lifetime warranty — ready for a proposal or to give as a keepsake.
