Adeline Marquise Cut Alexandrite Ring in Sterling Silver

Watch it once and you will understand the fascination. The Adeline marquise alexandrite ring holds a color-shifting lab-grown alexandrite that reads cool blue-green and teal in daylight, then warms to a soft purple-red under lamplight and candle glow. Because the marquise sits in an open setting, that shift is fully visible on your hand — a quiet piece of magic set in solid 925 sterling silver with a bright rhodium finish.

An elongated marquise with vintage poise

The marquise, or navette, is one of the most flattering cuts a hand can wear — its pointed oval elongates the finger and makes the center stone look larger than its carat weight suggests. Here it is set lengthwise along the band so the alexandrite becomes the whole story, an elegant alternative to the expected round solitaire. If you are drawn to characterful, non-traditional designs, you will find kindred pieces throughout our alexandrite engagement rings collection. It is a look built for anyone who wants a proposal ring, promise ring, or everyday statement with a little theatre.

The color-changing alexandrite

Alexandrite is famous for one reason: it changes color. The effect comes from trace chromium in the crystal, which lets the stone absorb light differently as the light source changes. In cool daylight or fluorescent light you will see blue-green and teal; step indoors under warm incandescent light or candlelight and the same stone glows purple-red to violet. This is a genuine lab-grown alexandrite — a real gemstone, created in a lab so the color-shift is vivid and consistent, without the extreme rarity and cost of mined material. To see how strong the effect really is, our guide on whether synthetic alexandrite changes color breaks it down, and you can compare grown and mined stones in our overview of lab-grown versus natural alexandrite. You will find the same color-shifting center across our wider alexandrite jewelry range.

Simulated diamond accents

Petite simulated diamond (cubic zirconia) accents frame the marquise, adding a crisp, budget-friendly flash of white that makes the alexandrite read even more vivid against it. They are cut for brilliance and sit flush and secure, so the sparkle stays clean day after day. Prefer a lab-grown diamond or moissanite upgrade instead?

Solid sterling silver with a rhodium finish

The band is crafted in solid 925 sterling silver and finished with rhodium, the same bright white metal used on fine white-gold jewelry. That rhodium layer gives the ring a mirror-white luster and adds a protective shield that helps resist tarnish and everyday scratches, so a sterling silver ring wears like something far more expensive. The slim 1.7 mm band keeps the focus squarely on the center stone.

What alexandrite symbolizes

A stone that transforms with the light has an obvious meaning: change embraced, love that adapts and endures. As the June birthstone, alexandrite is a thoughtful marker for summer engagements, anniversaries, and milestone birthdays. If you are weighing it against other colored-gem options, our comparison of alexandrite versus sapphire is a helpful read, and couples who want a coordinated look often pair this ring with a band from our alexandrite couples rings collection.

Sizing & care

Choose your size at checkout. If you are between sizes or unsure, reach out and we will help — and if the fit is not quite right, resizing is available and starts from a modest fee. To keep the alexandrite and rhodium finish at their brightest, remove the ring before showering, swimming, or applying lotions, and store it in the velvet box when not worn. A soft, dry cloth restores the shine. With gentle care this marquise is ready for everyday wear.
