Gatsby Ring

The design plays with stacked geometry. We set a rectangular blue stone on a hexagonal gold base, but we turned the rectangle slightly. It's not perfectly aligned, and that's what makes it interesting to look at from different angles.

This ring has a simple, polished gold band that rises to a flat, hexagonal platform. On top of that sits a smaller, raised rectangle, which holds a single, baguette-cut blue stone. We deliberately set the top rectangle at a slight angle to the hexagon underneath, so the corners don't line up. The whole piece has a high-polish finish that reflects a lot of light, making the gold and the centre stone shine.

We make this ring from solid 14 karat gold, not plated or filled. That's 58.3% pure gold mixed with alloys for strength, which means it's durable enough for daily wear and won't tarnish or turn your skin a different colour. The centre stone is a baguette-cut cubic zirconia, which gives you the sharp facets and bright colour of a gemstone. If you have a different colour or birthstone in mind, send us an email; we can customize this design.

Material: Solid 14K Gold
Stone: Cubic Zirconia (Baguette Cut)
Finish: Polished
Sold as: Single ring

It’s a very low-profile ring. The setting sits almost flat against the finger, so it doesn't catch on sweaters or get in the way. It’s for someone who likes minimalist jewellery but wants something more considered than a simple band or a standard solitaire. The angled stone is a small, intentional detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I customize the Gatsby Ring with a different birthstone instead of the blue cubic zirconia?

Yes, you can customize the Gatsby Ring with your choice of birthstone. The price may vary depending on the stone you select. Just send us an email before you order, and we can walk you through the options and provide a quote for your specific request.

Is it safe to shower or sleep while wearing my 14K gold Gatsby Ring?

Yes, it's generally safe to shower and sleep in your solid 14K gold ring. Gold itself is very durable. However, we recommend taking it off to prevent soap scum from dulling the stone or the ring getting snagged on bedding, which could damage the setting over time.

How does the thin band on the Gatsby Ring affect sizing? Should I size up or down?

The Gatsby Ring has a thin, delicate band that should fit true to your standard ring size. You don't typically need to size up or down for a band this narrow. If you're between sizes, we usually recommend choosing the larger size for the most comfortable fit.

What happens if I receive the Gatsby Ring and it doesn't fit or I change my mind?

You can return the Gatsby Ring within 30 days of receipt for a full refund or exchange. Just email us at returns@vanhess.ca, and we'll send you a prepaid shipping label. The ring must be in its original, unworn condition to be eligible for a return.

How long does free shipping to the US take for an order like the Gatsby Ring?

Free shipping is available on qualifying orders to Canada and the US (over $60 CAD) and usually takes between 5 to 15 business days to arrive. We also offer free shipping to the UK and EU for orders over $110 CAD. You'll receive a tracking number once it ships.
