i was waiting a while before i review this Ring, to see if the ring would wear off, but to my greatest surprise, this ring is as true as its description. it is still very shinning and Solid. the stones are still intact. I still get a lot of compliments on this ring. it's been a year now, and the ring is still as i bought it, i wash my hands with soap with it and take a shower. Soap hasn't faded it. Go for it, you won't regret it. I love my Wedding ring. You don't have to break the bank to wear a beautiful ring.
