Absolutely stunning!
I was concerned that the ring I got would not be as beautiful as the one pictured. I needn't have worried. My stone is a little darker, but just as dramatic, with lovely white striations. The band around the middle is a bit darker in real life, but this highlights the sparkle of the silver and the color of the stone. I was tempted to buy this ring the moment I saw it, but I worried about the price. I now feel it was worth every penny. A real beauty!
