Promise Rings

Promise rings mark a commitment before the proposal — meaningful enough to wear daily, distinct from an engagement ring. This collection pairs 925 sterling silver bands with natural green moss agate and moissanite, in pear, oval, kite and hexagon cuts, including vintage-style nesting sets.

Each moss agate stone carries its own one-of-a-kind green inclusions, so no two rings match.

Where a Promise Ring Sits Between Gift and Proposal

A promise ring marks intention without setting a date — more serious than birthday jewellery, deliberately short of an engagement. Traditionally it is worn on the ring finger of the right hand, or on the left as a placeholder until a proposal replaces it. If you are weighing up the etiquette, our guide to promise rings explained covers how they differ from engagement rings.

Moss Agate or Moissanite: Choosing the Stone

  • Moss agate shows green, plant-like inclusions sealed inside a clear stone — every one forms differently, so her ring is genuinely one of a kind. It suits nature lovers and anyone who wants a ring nobody else is wearing.
  • Moissanite delivers classic white sparkle and is among the hardest-wearing stones used in jewellery — the choice if she pictures a traditional, light-catching ring.
  • Several designs combine the two, framing a moss agate centre with moissanite accents.

Cuts, Sets and Future Stacking

The collection leans vintage: pear and oval cuts, kite-cut nesting sets and Art Deco-style hexagons, set in 925 sterling silver with selected yellow gold and rose gold plated finishes. Nesting sets are worth considering if a wedding band may follow — the bands are designed to sit together, so the promise ring can stay in the stack.

Sizing, Wear and Care

To size discreetly, borrow a ring she wears on the intended finger and compare it with the size chart, or trace its inner circle on paper. Moss agate is comfortable for daily wear but softer than moissanite, so remove it for gym sessions and heavy housework — the durability question is covered in depth in is moss agate good for a ring. Clean either stone with mild soapy water and a soft cloth. Rings arrive within a typical 7-12 working days, with free UK shipping over £79 and a 14-day full-refund window on non-personalised pieces.

Frequently asked questions

Which finger does a promise ring go on?

Traditionally the ring finger of the right hand. Some couples wear it on the left ring finger as a placeholder, then move it across when an engagement ring takes its place.

Is moss agate durable enough for a ring worn daily?

Yes, with sensible habits. Moss agate copes well with everyday wear but is softer than moissanite, so take it off for gym work, gardening and cleaning, and store it separately from harder stones.

Should I choose moss agate or moissanite?

Moss agate if she values uniqueness — each stone's green inclusions form differently, so no two rings match. Moissanite if she wants classic white sparkle and maximum everyday toughness. Several designs combine both.

Do any promise rings come as sets?

Yes. Kite-cut nesting sets pair the main ring with a fitted band, vintage bridal style. They suit anyone who likes a stacked look now or wants a wedding band to slot in later.

How do I find her ring size without asking?

Borrow a ring she already wears on that finger and match its inner diameter to the size chart, or trace the inside on paper. When between sizes, go up rather than down.

Can a promise ring be returned if the size is wrong?

Non-personalised rings can be returned within 14 days of delivery for a full refund, so a wrong size can be sorted by returning it and reordering. Engraved or personalised rings are made to order and final sale.
