How to find your ring size at home: 1) Wrap a thin strip of paper around the finger you wish to wear the ring on. 2) Mark the spot where the paper meets, then measure the distance with a ruler. 3) Use the measurements below to determine your ring size. Find your ring size below: · U.S. Size 4 is 46.8 mm or 1 & 14/16” around, Inner Diameter 14.9mm · U.S. Size 5 is 49.3 mm or 1 & 15/16” around, Inner Diameter 15.7mm · U.S. Size 6, is 51.9 mm or 2 & 1/16” around, Inner Diameter 16.5mm · U.S. Size 7, is 54.4 mm or 2 & 2/16” around, Inner Diameter 17.3mm · U.S. Size 8, is 56.9 mm or 2 & 4/16” around, Inner Diameter 18.1mm · U.S. Size 9, is 59.5mm or 2 & 6/16” around, Inner Diameter 18.9mm The band of this ring is: Vermeil, Laser Engraved S925, cast from 100% 92.5% Pure Sterling Silver + a Platinum Layer + a Anti-Fingerprint (AF) Protective Coating What is Vermeil (pronounced "Verˈmāl”)? When we use the word vermeil we are referring to a piece of jewelry that has Gold Plate, Platinum Plate, or other Metals Plated over Stamped “S925”, 92.5% Pure Sterling Silver. Also, known as Gilded Silver. What is S925 Sterling Silver? S925 Sterling Silver is made out of 92.5% by weight pure 99.9% Sterling Silver & is blended or alloyed with 7.5% by weight of other metals usually copper, nickel or zinc. Because 99.9% Pure Sterling Silver is a relatively SOFT metal it has to be alloyed to increase its Hardness & Strength for jewelry, & it also keeps the Sterling Silver from Oxidizing or Tarnishing. There is NO difference between the term “92.5”, “925”, “.925”, “S925”, “Sterling”, “ss”, “ster”, “Sterling Silver”, & “S925 Sterling Silver” they all mean the same thing. True sterling silver jewelry has a Silver STAMP & is absolutely Real Sterling Silver Jewelry that identifies the percentage of Pure Silver that's found in the piece (925, .925, S925, SS, or 92.5 etc. will be Stamped somewhere on the piece of jewelry). Silver-plated jewelry will NOT have a Sterling Silver Stamp. However, NOT all 100% Real Sterling Silver Jewelry is stamped. American Sterling Silver is always marked Sterling or S925, or 925 & is 92.5% Pure Silver. What is Platinum? Platinum is one of the STRONGEST, most ENDURING & DENSEST white-metallic metals. In fact, a piece of jewelry containing 90% Pure Platinum weighs 60% more than a 14K gold piece of Jewelry of similar size. Platinum Jewelry has a high level of PURITY making it naturally HYPOALLERGENIC, & the perfect choice for people with sensitive skin. Real Platinum Jewelry will be STAMPED. The stamp lets you know what percentage of platinum the jewelry was made of. A 999 STAMP on the jewelry means it’s made of 99.9% Pure Platinum. A PT950, or 950PLAT STAMP means the piece of jewelry is made of 95% Pure Platinum. A PT900, or 900PLAT STAMP means the piece of jewelry is made of 90% Pure Platinum. A PT850, or 850PLAT STAMP means the piece of jewelry is made of 85% Pure Platinum. In the United States, jewelry containing less than 50% Pure Platinum cannot be STAMPED with the word “Platinum”, “Pt.”, or “PLAT”. What is Anti-Fingerprint (AF) protective film?1. It is a film we put on the surface of the ring.2. It protects the ring from wear & tear.3. It's water & oil resistant, so it helps to keep the ring from darkening or fading.4. It helps to keep the ring bright.5. It makes the surface of the ring smoother. Moissanite - Silicon Carbide (SiC): The origins of Moissanite can be traced back to a meteorite that hit the Arizona desert 50,000 years ago. In 1893, a French chemist & Nobel Laureate Dr. Henri Moissan discovered a sample from the crater. From the sample, Dr. Moissan discovered a new mineral, silicon carbide from then on; it has been called “Moissanite”. This naturally occurring silicon carbide (SiC) is a rare mineral, which is almost as hard as a Diamond. Moissanite has a hardness rating of 9.25 on Mohs’ Diamond Hardness Scale vs. a rating of 10 for a Diamond; Moissanite is Optically Flawless & Colorless where a Diamond is rarely neither Flawless nor Colorless. By comparison, Moissanite is almost entirely colorless: equivalent to a perfect "D" on a Diamond Color Grading Scale. Because of their low cost, hardness, durability, & close optical properties to a Diamond, Moissanite has become one of the most geologically & economically important competitors to Diamonds since commercial production began in the 1990s. When a Diamond & Moissanite ring are shown to a customer side-by-side for the very first time most people pick the Moissanite thinking it’s the real Diamond because Moissanite has a much higher Fire Dispersion & Brilliance or Refractive Index (RI) than that of a real Diamond. A Diamonds Refractive Index is 2.417 to 2.419 while Moissanite’s Refractive Index is a whopping 2.64 to 2.69. Also, Moissanite are on average 90% cheaper than the cost of a mined Diamond of same size & finally Moissanite are so similar to Natural Diamonds that jewelers Diamond Testers read Moissanites as being Real Diamonds. Certificate Type (NGTC): is an official certificate issued by a government institute the institute basically tests the authenticity of a gemstone by grading the cut, color, clarity, and carat weight of diamonds. Moissanite GRA Certification Report: The Global Gemological Research Association Institute (GRA) is the standard of excellence in gemstones services worldwide, since 1993. For decades, trade professionals, throughout the world, have turned to GRA for their expertise, consistency & reliability in gemstone identification & grading. Your Moissanite ring will come with a GRA Moissanite Certification Report with a unique identification number called a (laser inscription number) which is a combination of microscopic letters &/or numbers laser engraved usually on the girdle of a gemstone that matches the letters &/or number on your GRA Certificate. The girdle is the narrow band found on the widest part of a gemstone, separating the crown (top) from the pavilion (bottom) of a gemstone. The girdle is sometimes referred to as the “setting edge” as it is where a gemstone is held when set in jewelry. Each Moissainite is unique like a Natural Diamond & are Graded & Numbered. If you need to view & check your unique GRA laser inscription number on your ring, use a 40x jewelers magnifying loop to read the number. NOTE: Smaller Moissanite Diamonds particularly those used as accent stones smaller than 0.5 Carats will NOT have unique serial numbers on them due to the practical challenges of marking such tiny stones. NOTE: The Callista Company only sells GRA Certified Moissanite Diamond Rings that can be verified. Moissanite Grading Scale: Moissanite is an affordable Diamond simulant that is an alternative to a mined Natural Diamond thanks to its alluring flashes of color & price point. Moissanite are graded just like mined Diamonds based upon The Global Gemological Research Association Institute (GRA) Diamond color grading scale know as the 4C’s: 1) Cut2) Color3) Clarity4) Carat weight 1) Moissanite Cut Grade: Cut grade denotes how well a stone is cut & with grades ranging from Excellent to Poor. With excellent cut grades, light can best travel throughout the stone & sparkle. Alternatively, poorly cut stones will not allow light to effectively travel throughout the stone, resulting in a lifeless looking stone. The grade chart for cut is simply: 1. Excellent2. Very Good3. Good4. Fair5. Poor 2) Moissanite Color Grade: Color grade refers to the amount of color present in the stone graded from a scale of D for colorless to Z for a slightly yellow tint. Moissanite color grades are broken down into three major groups: · Colorless (D-E-F range)· Near-colorless (G-H-I range) · Faint hues of color (J-K range) 3) Moissanite Clarity Grade: Clarity grade indicates the number of imperfections, known as inclusions. Nearly all gemstones have inclusions, but luckily for Moissanite, most of its inclusions are not visible to the naked eye & require intense magnification to be seen. Moissanite’s clarity is graded depending on the number of inclusions the stone has. These grades can be broken down into five easy to understand categories: 1. FL, IF: Flawless & internally flawless2. VVS1, VVS2: very, very slightly included3. VS1, VS2: Very slightly included4. SI1, SI2: Slightly included5. I1, I2, I3: Included 4) Moissanite & Carat Weight: For Diamonds, carat weight refers to how heavy a Diamond is. However, Moissanite weights approximately 15% less than a diamond of the same size, which makes the two stones impossible to compare by weight. How we determine a Moissanites carat weight relative to a Diamond is by comparing the millimeter dimensions of a Diamond to that of a Moissanite. So, a 2.0 Carat Moissanite has the same dimensions as a 2.0 Carat Diamond and so on. Jewelry Care: Just common sense, do NOT wear your jewelry when taking a shower, washing dishes, or swimming in a pool (to avoid damaging chemicals), digging in your garden, or exercising at the gym. When in doubt just take your jewelry off, & store in a clean dry place. Jewelry Cleaning: The best homemade jewelry cleaning solution is a mixture of a few drops of DAWN dish detergent in warm, NOT hot, water. Let the jewelry sit in the solution for a few minutes, then gently scrub with a Brand New, Baby-Sized, VERY SOFT Bristle Toothbrush, rinse, pat dry with a soft towel. Fun Fact #1: If this same ring were set with a Natural Diamond at current Diamond Prices. If this same ring were set with a Natural Diamond at current Diamond Prices. Just the center 2.0 Carat Diamond alone would cost you $ 14,660.00 & up depending on the grade of the Diamond. Most people can't spend that kind of money on just one ring. That is why Moissanites have remained one of the most geologically & economically important competitors to Natural Diamonds & Lab-Grown Diamonds; a Moissanite looks just like a Natural Diamond, wears just like a Natural Diamond, and Moissanite are on average 90% cheaper than the cost of a mined Diamond. Even jewelers Diamond Testers think Moissanites are Real Diamonds. Fun Fact #2: Did you know that less than 1% of all the World’s Mined Diamonds are good enough to be Color Graded (D, E, or F), with a Clarity Grade of (FL, IF, VVS1, or VVS2) making them the most Beautiful, Prestigious, and Top Tier diamonds in the world?
