I asked my husband to purchase this for me as a birthday present, and was thrilled when I received it earlier this month. As soon as I opened the box, I was stunned by the quality of the stones - the opal is white with many brilliant flecks of color, and the two tanzanites are a shade of lovely blue-violet. In truth the purple color was much deeper than I expected (not that cheap ultra-pale color you sometimes find), and I was so happy to see that the color of the two tanzanites is perfectly matched. I have ordered somewhat similar "sterling and gemstone" jewelry elsewhere in the past and been disappointed, but in this ring the stones are lovely, the design of the silver is delicate and unique, and the prong-style settings seem secure. I love the ring and am extremely happy with the purchase! I will definitely order from this store again!
