Is prasiolite a durable stone for everyday wear?

Prasiolite is quartz, around 7 on the Mohs scale. It handles daily wear but scratches more easily than sapphire or diamond, and heat or harsh chemicals can dull the color. A statement ring like this is better for occasional wear than constant wear.

Is prasiolite the same as green amethyst?

Yes. Prasiolite is amethyst that has been heat-treated to turn pale green. It is a genuine gemstone, not a synthetic, but the color comes from treatment rather than nature.

Can this ring be resized?

A gem-set statement band can usually be resized by a jeweler, but the setting and stone limit how far. Ask about sizing before you commit, and use a jeweler experienced with prasiolite.

What does it pair with?

The pale green and yellow gold suit warm tones, cream, olive and brown, and other yellow gold jewelry. It works as a right-hand ring or a cocktail ring rather than a stacking piece.

How should I care for it?

Wipe it with a soft cloth and store it separately so the quartz does not rub against harder stones. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, hot water and household chemicals, which can affect treated quartz.

About the Bloomingdale's Fine Collection Prasiolite Statement Ring in 14K Yellow Gold

A fine jewelry statement ring from Bloomingdale's Fine Collection, built around a single prasiolite stone set in 14K yellow gold. Prasiolite is heat-treated amethyst, a pale green quartz that is softer and less brilliant than sapphire or diamond, so it reads as a soft, unusual color rather than a sparkle piece. The gold setting and the stone's size make it a cocktail or right-hand ring, and it suits someone who wants a green gemstone without the cost of emerald. Against mass-market fashion rings it is real gold and a real gemstone; against fine-jewelry rivals, quartz is an entry-level stone, so the value sits in the gold and the look rather than rarity.
