Teal by day, twilight by night. The Eva lab-grown alexandrite ring is built around a 7x9 mm oval that glows blue-green teal in daylight and turns a deep purple once the evening lights come on — the signature color-change that sets alexandrite apart from every other stone. A vintage lotus of three marquise side stones surrounds it, brightened with simulated diamond accents, in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish. One ring, two entirely different moods.

Two colors, one stone
The whole appeal of alexandrite lives in its color-change. In cool natural daylight the oval reads a fresh blue-green teal; under warm indoor light or candlelight it deepens to purple. This is not a trick of the photos — the stone is faceted and open-set, so you genuinely watch it transform as you move from a sunny window to a dinner table. For a closer look at why alexandrite behaves this way, our journal on whether synthetic alexandrite changes colors is the best starting point.
A vintage lotus setting
Three marquise-cut stones arc around the oval to shape a lotus blossom, an old symbol of purity and renewal that gives the ring its soft, antique-romantic character. Simulated diamond accents outline the petals with a fine line of white sparkle, so the flower catches light from every angle. It is a design for lovers of heirloom-style detail, and it sits naturally alongside the rest of our alexandrite jewelry. Pair it with a partner's band from our alexandrite couples rings for a matched set.
The lab-grown center
The oval alexandrite measures 7.0 x 9.0 mm, approximately 1.4 carats, and is lab-grown — the same composition and dramatic color-shift as natural alexandrite, produced in a controlled environment so the stone stays clean, consistent and affordable. At roughly 8.5 on the Mohs scale it is genuinely hard-wearing. Natural alexandrite of this size is exceptionally rare and costly; if you want to understand the trade-offs, our guide to lab-grown versus natural alexandrite spells them out honestly.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
Eva is made in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium, the same precious metal used to plate fine white gold. That finish gives the ring a bright, mirror-white shine, adds a protective barrier against tarnish and scratches, and keeps the silver looking freshly polished. It is also nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so it stays comfortable through daily wear.
Why couples choose it
A stone that changes with its surroundings is an apt symbol for a partnership that grows and shifts over time, which is part of why alexandrite has become such a beloved engagement and promise-ring choice. As a June birthstone it also makes a heartfelt birthday gift. Still weighing your options?

Frequently asked questions
How dramatic is the color change?
Noticeably so. The oval reads blue-green teal in daylight and shifts to purple under warm indoor or candlelight. Because the stone is faceted and open-set, you can see it change simply by moving between different light sources.
When will I see the teal versus the purple?
Cool, natural daylight brings out the teal blue-green; warm incandescent bulbs and candlelight bring out the purple. The exact shade varies with the light around you, which is part of the stone's charm.
Is the alexandrite natural or lab-grown?
It is lab-grown, with the same chemistry and color-change as natural alexandrite but grown in controlled conditions. This keeps the stone clean and consistent while making a rare gemstone affordable.
How large is the center stone?
The oval measures 7.0 x 9.0 mm, roughly 1.4 carats, a generous center that still sits gracefully within the vintage lotus setting.
What are the accent stones?
The lotus petals are formed by three marquise-cut side stones, outlined with simulated diamonds that add a crisp line of white sparkle to the design.
What metal is it 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 shine, adds a protective layer, and makes the ring hypoallergenic and nickel-free.
Can it be a June birthstone gift?
Yes. Alexandrite is one of June's birthstones, so this ring is a meaningful birthday present as well as an engagement, promise or anniversary ring.
Is it tough enough for daily wear?
Yes. Alexandrite rates around 8.5 on the Mohs scale, so it holds up well to everyday life. Remove it for rough activities and avoid sharp knocks to keep it looking its best.
Will it turn my finger green?
No. The rhodium-finished sterling silver resists tarnish and is nickel-free and hypoallergenic, so it will not discolor your skin with normal wear.
How should I care for it?
Remove it before showering, swimming or applying lotions, store it in the velvet box, and buff with a soft dry cloth to restore shine. Gentle care keeps both the stone and the rhodium finish luminous.
What size should I order?
