very attractive ring, and appears to be well made. My stone did come in as blue, as I ordered, and the irridescent tone casts it as such a pretty subtle shade of blue, just as shiny as the sterling silver. My only disappointment is that there is no 'give' in the ring and it doesn't all quite make it over my knuckles, so I wont be able to wear it at this time. Too loose on my little finger, too snug on my ring finger and impossible for my pointer finger...so in the jewlery box it goes until I lose a few more pounds. I would consider sending it back for a larger size, but I may find the same problem as I have with my ring finger, in trying to get a larger size on my middle/pointer finger, so I'll just keep this one and pass it on, if i am unable to wear in the near future. Lovely piece.
