Designed to Shine: A Special Creation for a New Customer
"Every piece of jewelry tells a story. This one begins with a stone born from the stars — and hands shaped by decades of Balinese craft."
At Letung Silver, we've spent over 25 years working with sterling silver — shaping it, polishing it, and breathing life into designs that cross continents. And in all that time, few combinations have captivated us quite like the pairing of 925 Sterling Silver with the brilliant fire of moissanite.
The ring you see here is more than a piece of jewelry. It's a statement — handcrafted in Bali, designed to last a lifetime, and finished to catch light in ways that never grow old. The classic halo setting, one commanding center stone surrounded by a circle of smaller ones, is one of the most enduring silhouettes in fine jewelry. And when that center stone is moissanite, the result is nothing short of extraordinary.
What is moissanite?
Moissanite was first discovered in 1893 by Nobel Prize-winning scientist Henri Moissan, found inside a meteorite crater in Arizona. The stone is so rare in nature that virtually all moissanite used in jewelry today is grown in laboratories — yet its chemical composition, silicon carbide (SiC), is identical to what fell from the sky.
What makes it remarkable isn't just its origin story. It's what it does with light.
A dispersion rating of 0.104 means moissanite breaks light into more spectral color than any other gemstone commonly used in jewelry. Under sunlight, under candlelight, under the warm glow of an evening room — it doesn't just shine. It performs.
The halo setting: a timeless silhouette
The halo design has roots in the Art Deco era of the 1920s. A large center stone, encircled by a "halo" of smaller pavé-set stones, all raised on a clean band. It's a design that has never once felt dated — because it was never truly a trend. It's geometry. It's balance. It's the kind of shape that simply works.
The center stone in this ring is a round brilliant cut moissanite — 57 to 58 precisely angled facets, each one calculated to redirect light back toward the viewer. Surrounded by 12–16 pavé accent stones set into a smooth circular disc, the entire head of the ring appears dramatically larger than its actual diameter. This is the genius of the halo: presence without excess.
Moissanite & diamond — an honest comparison
We believe in transparency at Letung Silver. So here is what you need to know:

| Price | Up to 90% more affordable | Premium investment |
| Ethics & sourcing | Lab-grown, conflict-free | Requires ethical certification |
| Resale value | Lower secondary market | More stable over time |
Why 925 Sterling Silver?
At Letung Silver, sterling silver is our material of choice — and not by accident. Sterling silver (92.5% pure silver, marked 925) carries a cool, luminous tone that works in complete harmony with moissanite's blue-white fire. Together, they create a palette that reads as crisp, modern, and unmistakably refined.
Beyond aesthetics, there is a practical honesty to sterling silver. It offers a look nearly indistinguishable from platinum or white gold — at a fraction of the cost. For our wholesale clients and individual customers alike, this means exceptional value without visual compromise. That is a combination we are proud to stand behind.
Caring for your silver moissanite ring
- 01Clean gently and regularly. A soft toothbrush, mild soap, and warm water is all you need. Work carefully around the setting to lift any buildup behind the stones.
- 02Protect it from chemicals. Perfume, lotion, chlorine, and household cleaners accelerate tarnishing. Remove your ring before swimming, cleaning, or applying beauty products.
- 03Store it thoughtfully. An anti-tarnish pouch or a sealed jewelry box will slow oxidation significantly. Silver reacts with air over time — mindful storage extends its life.
- 04Polish with microfiber only. Regular tissue can introduce micro-scratches. A dedicated silver polishing cloth restores surface luster without damage.
- 05Consider rhodium plating. Many of our silver pieces are rhodium-finished for added brightness and durability. Re-plating every one to two years keeps it looking freshly made.
