925 Sterling Silver Butterfly Ring - 12 Zirconia - Adjustable M-O

Butterfly Ring – Pavé Wings on a Scalloped 925 Sterling Silver Band

A butterfly sits open-winged at the front of this ring, 8.2mm across and 5.6mm tall, with twelve clear zirconia set six to a wing so both sides catch light evenly. The band behind it is not plain: it is worked into overlapping scalloped sections that run away from the butterfly like a row of petals laid over each other. The ring weighs 1.03g in 925 sterling silver, stamped S925 inside the band.

The band is open at the back and flexes across roughly UK M to O. Sterling is the harder of our two silvers, which matters on a ring carrying set stones – it holds the settings steadier than fine silver would. On why we use zirconia and say so plainly, see Not All Sparkle Is Diamond.

FAQs

1. Are the twelve stones diamonds?
No. They are clear zirconia, six set into each wing – a bright, hard, man-made stone. We say so openly, and explain why in Not All Sparkle Is Diamond.

2. Why sterling rather than 999 fine silver?
Sterling is harder. On a ring with twelve set stones that matters, because the settings need a metal that resists flexing. Fine silver suits plain and floral bands better. The comparison is in our 925 vs S925 guide.

3. Does it need a UK hallmark?
No. UK law requires hallmarking on silver articles of 7.78g and above; this ring is 1.03g, so it is exempt. The S925 stamp inside records the metal content.

4. How do I keep the wings sparkling?
Hand cream and soap film settle between pavé stones and dull them quickly. Take the ring off before applying lotion, and lift dust out with a soft dry brush – see JewelCare™ and the Silver Care Card.

How to Style the Butterfly Ring

The scalloped band means this ring already carries texture as well as sparkle, so wear it as the lead piece and keep anything beside it plain. It reads well on the index finger where the butterfly stays visible. Browse the 925 Sterling Silver collection, the full Rings range, or JewelBuild™.
