Clean lines, one hypnotic stone. This modern bezel set centers a kite-cut alexandrite that shifts from cool teal in daylight to violet under warm light — a genuine color change, easy to see because the faceted kite sits open to the light in a sleek, protective bezel. Engagement ring and matching band come together in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish, accented with cubic zirconia for a minimalist yet magical look.

A minimalist bezel that lets the stone speak
Where a claw setting adds sparkle, a bezel adds calm — a smooth metal rim that wraps the kite, protects its points and frames the color shift like a modern painting. The result is understated and architectural, ideal for anyone who wants an alternative engagement look without fuss. The slim band keeps it comfortable for all-day wear. Find more of the shape across our kite cut alexandrite engagement rings and the wider alexandrite engagement rings collection.
The engagement ring
Holds the kite-cut color-shift alexandrite in a sleek protective bezel — the focal point and statement of the set.
The matching band
A slim companion band that sits flush against the engagement ring, and layers easily with our alexandrite wedding bands.
The lab-created alexandrite
The center is a lab-created alexandrite, a 6 x 10 mm kite of roughly 1.5 carats. It is genuine chrysoberyl, grown with the same chromium chemistry that gives natural alexandrite its rare color change — only cleaner, brighter and far more attainable than a mined stone this size. That shift from teal to violet is the star of the design. To see how the effect works, read our note on whether synthetic alexandrite changes color, and for a fuller picture our guide to lab-grown versus natural alexandrite.
Cubic zirconia accents
Discreet simulated diamonds add just enough sparkle to lift the minimalist bezel without crowding it. The cubic zirconia is precision-cut for crisp, bright fire that plays against the shifting center. Prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents? Message us and we can build the set to order.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
Both rings are crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium — the same bright precious metal used on fine white gold. That rhodium plating delivers a mirror-white luster and a protective layer that resists tarnish and everyday scratches, so the set keeps its freshly polished shine. The bands are nickel-free and hypoallergenic for comfortable daily wear.
What the alexandrite set symbolizes
A stone that changes with the light has long symbolized balance, transformation and a love that adapts — a meaningful message for two rings made to be worn as one. Alexandrite is also one of June’s birthstones, so the set makes a thoughtful choice for a summer engagement or anniversary. Shopping as a pair? It complements our alexandrite couples rings, and if you are deciding between gems, our comparison of alexandrite versus sapphire helps you choose.

Sizing & care
Choose your size at checkout. If you are between sizes or unsure, we are happy to help — and if the fit isn’t right, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. To keep the color shift vivid and the rhodium finish bright, remove the rings before showering, swimming or applying lotions, and store them in the velvet box when not worn. A soft, dry cloth restores the shine in seconds.
Frequently asked questions
Does the alexandrite really change color?
Yes. The faceted kite sits open to the light within its bezel, so the shift is easy to see — teal in daylight moving to violet under warm indoor or candle light. It is the highlight of the set.
Why does alexandrite shift color?
Trace chromium in the stone absorbs light differently under different sources. Blue-rich daylight makes it read teal; red-rich warm light makes it read violet. It is a genuine optical property of alexandrite, not a coating.
Is the alexandrite genuine?
Yes, it is 100% genuine lab-created alexandrite, chemically identical to mined alexandrite but ethically made and far more attainable. Only the small accent stones are cubic zirconia.
Does this come as a set?
Yes — it includes the bezel-set kite alexandrite engagement ring plus a matching band designed to sit flush against it for a complete, modern bridal look.
What are the benefits of a bezel setting?
A bezel wraps the stone in a smooth metal rim that protects its edges and points, making it one of the most secure, low-maintenance settings — ideal for active, everyday wear — while giving a clean, modern look.
What are the accent stones?
They are simulated diamonds (cubic zirconia), precision-cut for crisp, bright sparkle. If you would prefer moissanite or lab-grown diamond accents, contact us and we can craft the set to order.
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 on fine white gold. It gives the silver a mirror-bright shine and adds a protective layer that keeps the rings looking freshly polished.
Will sterling silver turn my finger green?
No. Genuine 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish will not turn your skin green. Green marks come from low-quality or fake metals, never from real sterling silver.
Is it durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. Alexandrite sits around 8.5 on the Mohs scale, and the protective bezel adds security, so the set is well suited to everyday wear with normal care.
Can it be engraved?
Yes. You can add a personal engraving of up to 16 characters at checkout — a date, initials or a short message. Engraved pieces are final sale, so please double-check spelling.
What size should I order?
Select your ring size at checkout. If you are unsure or between sizes, contact us for guidance. Resizing is available and starts from a modest fee.
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.
