A galaxy on the finger — not jewelry showing off jewelry. The Evelyn Starry Night ring set pairs a pear-cut Starry Night solitaire with a marquise crown contour band, both in solid 925 sterling silver finished in smoky black ruthenium. The darkened metal nearly disappears against the deep midnight-blue stone, so its countless copper-gold flecks read like stars suspended in night sky. Inspired by the Great Rift nebula, it is a celestial two-piece for those who feel the pull of deep space.

The set reads as a night sky shot through with starlight — asymmetric, dynamic, in motion even when it sits still. It is made for anyone drawn to celestial, cosmic and gothic aesthetics over the traditional white-diamond solitaire, at home among our Starry Night engagement rings and celestial couple rings. For couples building a complete look, our journal on matching rings for couples is full of inspiration.
The solitaire
A pear-cut Starry Night center held point-down in a four-prong basket, with marquise and round simulated-diamond accents arcing up each side like comet tails.
The crown band
A marquise-and-round crown contour band that nests above the solitaire, rising to a delicate tiara peak. Wears beautifully alone as a statement crown ring, or explore our blue sandstone engagement rings.
The Starry Night center stone
The pear-cut center is a Starry Night stone: a deep midnight blue alive with thousands of tiny copper-gold points that catch the light like a sky full of distant constellations. Tip your hand and the flecks flare and travel — galaxy on the finger, the cosmic signature that gives the stone its reputation. The pear silhouette gives substantial presence and is the most romantic of all engagement-ring shapes, its point facing gently down toward the finger.
Brilliant simulated-diamond accents
Marquise-cut simulated diamonds arc up each side of the center like comet tails, while round simulated-diamond accents scatter through the shoulders and the crown band to add density and sparkle. They are a bright, budget-friendly way to frame the deep blue of the Starry Night, and they make the whole set glitter like a scattering of stars.
The black ruthenium finish
Both rings are solid 925 sterling silver finished with black ruthenium, a rare metal from the platinum family. Ruthenium reads as a deep gunmetal — a blackened, smoky gray rather than a flat, painted jet-black — and that is precisely what gives the set its antique, gothic-vintage warmth. Because it is a precious-metal finish rather than a coating, it is safe for sensitive skin and will not turn the skin. The darkened silver recedes against the midnight stone so the Starry Night appears to float, while faint highlights still travel along the crown so its detail reads as shadow on shadow. To learn how the finish is made, see our note on what black ruthenium is.
Who it is for
For brides drawn to celestial, cosmic, galaxy or witchy engagement-ring aesthetics; for anyone who wants a piece that captures that Great Rift nebula energy — black sky shot through with stars; for the partner shopping a dark, alternative bridal set with real cosmic symbolism behind the stone. It sits naturally among our gothic engagement rings, and for more on wearing darkness beautifully our guide to black rings for women and our gothic wedding ring styles are beautiful reads.

Sizing & care
Choose your size at checkout; the set ships as a matched pair. If you are between sizes or unsure, reach out — we are glad to help, and resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. To keep the black ruthenium finish deep and the stones vivid, remove the rings before showering, swimming, cleaning or applying lotions and fragrance, and store them dry in the velvet box between wears. A soft, dry cloth restores the shine. Treated gently, the darkened silver keeps its smoky, starlit character for years to come.
Frequently asked questions
Does this come as a set?
Yes — it is a two-piece set that includes the pear Starry Night solitaire plus a marquise crown contour band designed to nest above it. The crown band also wears beautifully on its own as a statement ring.
What is the Starry Night center stone?
It is a Starry Night stone — a deep midnight-blue gem shimmering with countless copper-gold flecks that catch the light like a sky full of stars. That glittering, galaxy-like effect is exactly what makes it the heart of this celestial set.
Is the ring pure black?
Not a flat jet-black, and that is by design. Black ruthenium is a deep gunmetal, a blackened smoky gray, so the finish has genuine depth and an antique, gothic-vintage warmth rather than the dead-flat look of a painted coating. It reads unmistakably dark while receding against the midnight stone so the Starry Night appears to float.
What is black ruthenium?
Ruthenium is a rare precious metal from the platinum family. Applied over solid 925 sterling silver, it darkens the metal to a rich blackened tone. Because it is a precious-metal finish rather than a cheap coating, it is stable, hypoallergenic and does not turn the skin.
What are the accent stones?
Marquise and round simulated diamonds frame the center and scatter through the shoulders and crown band, adding a crisp, brilliant sparkle that lifts the deep blue of the Starry Night.
What metal are the rings made from?
Both rings are solid 925 sterling silver finished in black ruthenium for their smoky, gothic depth. They are hallmarked sterling and safe for sensitive skin, not plated base metal.
Is the finish safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. Black ruthenium is a precious-metal finish from the platinum family, not a cheap coating, so it is safe for sensitive skin and will not turn the skin.
Why is the center pear cut?
The pear silhouette gives generous finger presence and is often called the most romantic of engagement-ring shapes. Set point-down, it draws the eye along the finger and shows off the stone’s starry surface.
Will the finish wear off?
Black ruthenium is a durable platinum-group finish that resists flaking and chipping far better than ordinary plating. With gentle care it holds its deep tone; if you ever wish to refresh it after years of daily wear, re-finishing is available.
Can the rings be engraved?
Yes. Add a personal engraving of up to 16 characters at checkout — a date, initials or a few words. Engraved pieces are final sale, so please double-check the spelling.
How do I care for the set?
Remove the rings before showering, swimming, cleaning or applying lotions and fragrance, store them dry in the velvet box, and buff gently with a soft dry cloth to keep both the stones and the darkened silver looking their best.
Are the stones ethically sourced?
Yes. Our stones are ethically sourced and conflict-free, so you can wear the set 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.
