A vintage silhouette, an electric center
The setting borrows from old-world jewelry — softly scrolled shoulders and a milgrain-inspired vintage frame — then drops in a color no antique ring ever had. The oval Paraiba tourmaline reads as pure Caribbean-lagoon blue-green, a hue so saturated it seems lit from within. If you are drawn to designs that break from the expected white diamond, browse more of our unique engagement rings and wider gemstone engagement rings for pieces built around color first.
The Paraiba tourmaline
Paraiba tourmaline is famous for one thing: that impossible glowing turquoise, driven by traces of copper in the stone. This center is a lab-created Paraiba tourmaline, which means you get that same vivid neon color with beautiful clarity and consistency, at a fraction of what a mined Paraiba would cost. Cut as a smooth oval, it catches light across its whole surface and shows off the color from every angle. You will find it alongside our other organic, color-led designs in the nature-inspired engagement rings collection. To place the stone in the wider story of colored gems, our feature on the history of gemstones and their meaning is a rewarding read.
Simulated diamond accents
Flanking the center, simulated diamond accents add a crisp flash of white sparkle that makes the turquoise glow read even hotter by contrast. It is a bright, budget-friendly way to frame the Paraiba with classic engagement-ring shimmer without pulling focus from the star of the ring. Prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents instead? Message us — most of our designs can be tailored.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
The ring is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with a layer of rhodium, the same precious metal used on fine white-gold jewelry. That rhodium finish gives the band a bright, mirror-white luster and adds a protective shield that helps resist tarnish and everyday scratches, keeping the silver looking freshly polished. It is the detail that lets a sterling silver ring wear like something far more expensive.
Symbolism and the October birthstone
Tourmaline is one of the two birthstones for October, long associated with joy, creativity and a lively, open heart — a fitting emblem for a bright new chapter or a spirited "yes." Its electric color makes it a natural pick for someone who lives a little louder than the crowd. Learn more about the month's gems in our October birthstone guide, and if you are unsure which stone belongs to your partner, our quick guide to what is my birthstone makes it easy.

Frequently asked questions
What kind of tourmaline is the center stone?
It is a lab-created Paraiba tourmaline in a vivid neon-turquoise color. Lab-created means you get that signature glowing hue with lovely clarity and consistency, at a far more accessible price than a mined Paraiba.
Why is Paraiba tourmaline so blue-green?
Its unmistakable turquoise glow comes from traces of copper in the stone. That copper content is what sets Paraiba apart from ordinary tourmaline and gives it that electric, lit-from-within look.
What are the accent stones?
They are simulated diamonds that add a crisp white sparkle and make the turquoise center glow even hotter by contrast. If you would prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents, reach out and we will tailor it for you.
What metal is the ring made from?
Solid 925 sterling silver, finished with rhodium for a bright white luster and extra protection against tarnish and scratches.
What does the rhodium finish do?
Rhodium is the same precious metal used to finish fine white gold. It gives the silver a mirror-bright, white shine and adds a protective layer that helps the ring stay looking freshly polished.
What size is the center stone?
The oval center measures approximately 6.0 x 4.0 mm, around 0.43 carat — a comfortable, wearable size that still delivers a bold hit of color.
Is this a good engagement or promise ring?
Absolutely. Its vintage styling and one-of-a-kind color make it a memorable non-traditional engagement ring, promise ring or milestone gift for someone who loves standing apart from the crowd.
Is tourmaline durable enough for daily wear?
Tourmaline sits around 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, making it well suited to everyday wear with normal care. Avoid hard knocks, and remove the ring for rough activities to keep the stone pristine.
Will the color vary from the photos?
Each stone carries the same rich neon-turquoise character, though color can vary very slightly and some stones show subtle natural-like inclusions that add to their individual charm.
What is the band width and fit?
The band is approximately 2 mm wide with a comfort-fit profile, so it sits smoothly and feels easy to wear all day.
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.
Are the stones ethically sourced?
Yes. All of our stones are ethically sourced and conflict-free, so you can wear your ring with complete peace of mind.
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.
