Black Diamond Cross Ring – Noxe
$54.95
Black cubic zirconia stones set against a platinum-plated sterling silver band create a high-contrast cross ring that leans gothic without losing its refinement.
- Black CZ stones are pavé-set along the cross and front half of the band, creating a sharp two-tone contrast with the bright platinum-plated silver at the back.
- Three-layer platinum electroplating gives the band a cooler, harder finish than standard rhodium, with improved resistance to oxidation and wear.
- At 0.04 oz, this is one of the lightest cross rings in the collection, built for all-day wear without fatigue.
- The sideways cross measures 0.31 in across with a slim vertical bar, keeping the dark accent proportional and discreet on smaller hands.
- Currently available in US size 7, fitting the most common women’s ring size in the American market.
Our Take
The black against bright silver has a sharpness that photographs don’t fully capture. In person, the contrast is stronger and the stones absorb light in a way that gives the cross real visual density. A different mood from anything else in our ring collection.

Description
A Black Cross Ring With Edge and Intention
Black stones in faith jewelry carry a different energy than their clear or white counterparts. The Noxe leans into that contrast deliberately. The black CZ stones are set into a darkened micro-pavé channel that runs along the sideways cross and transitions halfway down the band before giving way to clean, mirror-polished platinum-plated silver. That shift from dark to bright is the defining visual of this ring. It reads as modern, slightly gothic, and unmistakably intentional. The 925 sterling silver base provides the structural foundation, while the three-layer platinum plating adds durability and a harder surface finish than standard silver rhodium treatments. This is a cross ring for the woman whose faith doesn’t fit into a single aesthetic lane.
Black Stones and the Cross: A History Worth Knowing
Black gemstones have held a place in Christian jewelry for centuries. Jet, onyx, and obsidian were historically worn during periods of mourning and contemplation, symbolizing solemnity and spiritual depth. Victorian-era mourning crosses often featured black stones set in silver, a tradition the Noxe echoes in a contemporary format. Wearing a black cross ring today carries some of that weight without the heaviness of formal mourning. It signals introspection, strength, and a faith that doesn’t need to shine bright to be seen. Pair it with dark nail polish and silver hoops for a cohesive look, or let it stand alone against bare fingers where the contrast speaks loudest.
Protecting the Finish
Platinum plating is harder than gold plating and resists scratching better, but it still benefits from basic care. Remove the ring before contact with harsh chemicals, chlorine, or abrasive surfaces. The black CZ stones are durable and colorfast, so they won’t fade or discolor with normal wear. Clean the ring with a soft cloth and lukewarm soapy water, using a gentle brush around the pavé settings if debris accumulates. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, as the vibration can loosen micro-pavé stones over time. Store separately from other jewelry to prevent the polished silver sections from picking up surface scratches. Minimal effort keeps the Noxe looking sharp.
