The ring is very well made. Sturdy, the colors are subtle. The crystal in the middle is impressive but not too big. And it's a luminous, not sparkly stone. The smaller colored crystals that surround it are more spotlights that enhance the larger crystal. My only complaint is that because this is adjustable, the back of the ring can and will dig into your finger at times making it uncomfortable. Took a star off for that alone. Love the ring though.
