Clean lines, changing color. The Evelyn alexandrite engagement ring set pairs a color-changing oval alexandrite — green in daylight, purple under warm light — with a minimalist matching band, both in solid 925 sterling silver with a rhodium finish. The 7x9 mm center is generous at roughly 1.8 carats, and the pared-back setting lets the stone's daylight-to-candlelight shift do all the talking. A two-ring set made to be worn together, for a lifetime.

The color that shifts with the light
Alexandrite's defining quality is its color-change, and Evelyn puts it front and center. In cool natural daylight the oval reads a clear green; step into incandescent light or candlelight and it warms into purple. Because the stone is faceted and held in an open, minimalist setting, nothing hides the shift — you watch it change on your hand throughout the day. If you would like to know how a single gem can do this, our journal on whether synthetic alexandrite changes colors explains it clearly.
A modern minimalist set
Evelyn keeps the design deliberately clean: a slim solitaire-style engagement ring and a matching band with the same restrained profile, so the alexandrite stays the hero. Worn together the two rings read as one considered, contemporary piece; worn apart, each holds its own. It is an easy set to style every day, and it sits comfortably within our alexandrite couples rings and alexandrite wedding bands collections.
The engagement ring
Holds the color-changing oval alexandrite in a clean, open solitaire-style setting — the focal point of the set.
The matching band
A slender minimalist band that nests neatly against the engagement ring, completing the set or worn alone as a promise ring.
The center stone
The oval alexandrite measures 7.0 x 9.0 mm, approximately 1.8 carats, and is lab-grown — the same chemistry and dramatic color-shift as natural alexandrite, produced in controlled conditions so it stays clean and consistent. It rates roughly 8.5 to 9 on the Mohs scale, making it one of the more durable colored stones you can choose for daily wear. To weigh grown against mined, our guide to lab-grown versus natural alexandrite is a helpful read. Small simulated diamond accents add a touch of crisp white sparkle at the shoulders.
Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish
Both rings are crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium, the same precious metal used on fine white-gold jewelry. The rhodium gives a bright, mirror-white luster and adds a protective layer that helps resist tarnish and everyday scratches, so the set keeps its freshly polished look. Sterling silver of this quality will not turn your finger green or cause skin discoloration.
What it symbolizes
A gem that transforms with the light is a fitting emblem for a love that evolves and deepens, which is why alexandrite has become such a meaningful choice for engagements and anniversaries. As a June birthstone it doubles as a heartfelt gift. If you are still choosing your stone, our comparison of alexandrite versus sapphire is worth a look, and the full alexandrite engagement rings collection shows the possibilities.

Frequently asked questions
Does the alexandrite really change color?
Yes. The oval center shifts from green in natural daylight to purple under incandescent light or candlelight. Because the stone is faceted and set in an open minimalist mount, the change is clearly visible on the hand.
Does this come as a set?
Yes. It includes the alexandrite engagement ring plus a matching minimalist band designed to sit alongside it. The band can also be worn on its own as a promise or stacking ring.
Is the alexandrite natural or lab-grown?
It is lab-grown, with the same chemistry and color-change as natural alexandrite but created in controlled conditions. This keeps the stone clean and consistent while making a rare gem attainable.
How large is the center stone?
The oval measures 7.0 x 9.0 mm, approximately 1.8 carats, a generous, confident center that still suits the clean minimalist setting.
What are the accent stones?
Small simulated diamonds add a crisp flash of white sparkle at the shoulders, complementing the color-changing alexandrite without competing with it.
What metal is it made from?
Both rings are 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 and adds a protective layer that keeps the set looking freshly polished.
Will the silver turn my finger green?
No. This is quality sterling silver with a rhodium finish, so it resists tarnish and will not cause skin discoloration with normal wear.
Is alexandrite durable enough for daily wear?
Yes. Alexandrite rates roughly 8.5 to 9 on the Mohs scale, among the harder colored stones, so the set wears well day to day. Remove it for rough activities and avoid hard knocks.
Is it a good June birthstone gift?
Yes. Alexandrite is one of June's birthstones, so this set makes a meaningful birthday gift as well as an engagement or anniversary set.
How should I care for the rings?
Remove them before showering, swimming or applying lotions, store them in the velvet box, and buff with a soft dry cloth. Gentle care keeps both the stone and the rhodium finish luminous.
