Simple Solitaire Moissanite and 950 Palladium Engagement or Wedding Ring - Eco-Friendly Diamond Alternative - Made To Order by mcfarlanddesigns

This delicately beautiful ring showcases a lovely moissanite (5mm; about equal in size to a 0.45 carat diamond) set in a handmade tapered bezel on a 3mm wide comfort-fit band. The bezel sits nice and low, making this a very comfortable, easy-to-wear piece. All of the metal used in the construction of this ring is 950 palladium from recycled sources, and has been given a polished finish (though I would also be happy to give yours a matte finish if you prefer).

950 Palladium is 95% pure palladium (palladium is a noble metal in the platinum family). It is hypoallergenic (nickel free), and boasts a wonderful permanent bright-white color (much whiter than white gold) that does not require rhodium plating.

Please let me know what size you need when you place your order, and allow three to four weeks for fabrication of this custom-made piece.

This design is also available in yellow, white, or rose gold. I can also make it with a different sized stone - whatever your heart desires, let's chat. :-) You can read more about my custom ordering process (including more information about the various metals I offer) on this page of my website: http://www.mcfarlanddesigns.com/ethical-custom-jewelry.htm

I'm now offering an optional upgrade to Forever Brilliant moissanite in this design. You can read more about this option, and see photos and pricing, on my blog: http://mcfarlanddesigns.blogspot.com/2012/08/forever-brilliant-moissanite-upgrades.html ; if you would like to upgrade this ring to Forever Brilliant, please let me know in the 'message to seller' field during checkout and I will send a Paypal money request for the additional amount due.

If you're not familiar with moissanite, please read on to discover more about this amazing material...

Moissanite was originally born from a meteorite over 50,000 years ago, and was first discovered by Dr. Henri Moissan in 1893 in material collected from a meteor crater in Arizona. These incredibly brilliant sparkling crystals might have been considered "diamonds from space," but Dr. Moissan's research actually identified them as a new mineral find - silcon carbide, whose chemical composition is SiC (diamonds are made from carbon). This stunning jewel is extremely rare, and almost impossible to find in nature. So rare, in fact, that the dream of using it in jewelry was an impossibility until man discovered a way to create and craft these incredible silicon carbide crystals here on Earth.

With more fire than any popular gemstone (including diamond), no other stone or jewel compares to Moissanite. In fact, fire can be measured scientifically and moissanite has nearly 2.4 times the fire of diamond. Moissanite also has 10% more brilliance and luster than diamond. Proven to be harder than ruby, sapphire or emerald and second only to diamond, moissanite is also extraordinarily heat resistant, durable, and tough. It is extremely resistant to scratching, abrasion, breaking and chipping. And because these phenomenal stones are grown in a laboratory, you don't have to worry about the ethical problems involved with harvesting diamonds and other mined gems.

Pretty cool, huh? :-)

Due to the value of this piece, shipping costs have been adjusted to include insurance within the United States. I do offer international shipping; if you live outside the US, please contact me for a quote specific to your location. Due to the lack of availability of insurance through the US postal service for international packages, I use FedEx when shipping overseas; this is a more expensive but far safer option. International buyers, please be aware that you are solely responsible for any duties/taxes that your country may charge on imported goods.

As is all my jewelry, this piece is vegan, meaning no animal products (pearls, silk, leather, etc.) were used in its construction.

I accept PayPal, money orders, checks, and credit cards (please call me at 707-633-6340 if you would like to initiate a credit card payment outside of Paypal).
