I was completely expecting what I saw in the picture. However, I was more than presently surprised. There is no real way to catch the beauty of this product with a still picture. The constant changing colors are beautiful in any light. The ring is made not cheaply (which I was concerned about when I saw the price). It is a very good design and built very sturdy. I have done nothing but wear this ring showing off it's beauty since it came in. The arrival was nearly 3 days early which made me even happier. Overall this product is well worth the money spent and will be a wonderful addition to anyone's daily wardrobe.
