How to choose a gemstone ring
- Stone
- Start with the color you want to see every day, then check how the stone wears. Sapphire and alexandrite are the hardest of the set stones, moss agate and amethyst sit in the middle, and opal and moonstone are softer, so those two ride in protective settings. The pills above show how many rings carry each stone.
- Set stone or inlay
- A set stone sits up in prongs and catches light from every side, the engagement ring look. An inlay is crushed stone sealed flush inside the band, so nothing snags and the color runs all the way around. Most of her rings here are set stones and most of his are inlays.
- Metal
- Set stones come on solid 925 sterling silver, finished in white rhodium, gold, rose gold or black. Inlay bands are mostly tungsten carbide, the hardest ring metal we use, with a few in titanium and sterling silver. Both can be engraved inside the band.
Whichever stone you pick, engraving inside the band is free, resizing exchanges are free if the fit misses, every order ships with a ring sizer, and the ring carries a lifetime warranty.
Questions before you buy
Are the gemstones natural or lab-created?
Both, and each product page says which. Moss agate, amethyst and moonstone are natural stones. Opals are lab-created Bello opal, chosen for color and durability. Sapphire, alexandrite, ruby and emerald are lab-created or simulated, which is why a sapphire ring here costs a fraction of a mined one.
Which gemstone is best for an engagement ring?
The one she will want to look at every day, as long as it can take the wear. Sapphire and alexandrite are the hardest of the set stones, moss agate and amethyst sit in the middle, and opal and moonstone are softer, so the last two do best in a protective setting. If the ring will never come off, pick from the first two groups. Our alternative engagement ring guide goes stone by stone.
Do gemstone engagement rings have a meaning?
Most of the meaning comes from the birthstone months. Garnet is January, amethyst February, aquamarine March, emerald May, moonstone, pearl and alexandrite June, ruby July, sapphire September, opal October, and citrine and topaz November. Moss agate has no month but is tied to growth and new beginnings, which is why so many couples choose it. None of it is a rule. Pick the stone you both love.
Do you make gemstone rings for men?
Yes. Most men's rings here are tungsten bands with a crushed stone inlay in sapphire, amethyst, moss agate, opal or emerald, in 6mm and 8mm widths, plus set-stone bands for men who want a center stone. Men's Engagement Rings and Opal Rings for Men hold the biggest groups.
Can two people wear matching gemstone rings?
Yes. A matching set pairs her set-stone ring with his inlay band in the same stone, so one color runs across both hands, and each ring is sized on its own. Couples Rings holds every set.
Can a gemstone ring be engraved?
Yes, free. A date, initials or a short phrase inside the band. Engraved rings are final sale unless the order includes the Perfect Fit Promise, so check the size first with the free ring sizer. Our engraving guide covers what fits.
