This is a beautiful ring that is of excellent quality.  The only reason I did not give it a complete 5 stars is because I prefer very dark tiger's eye and this stone is very light.  However, because the overall quality of the ring is so phenomenal, I am keeping it.  It should be noted that the ring sits on the finger at a slant, not upright as in the picture.  That is not a problem in appearance, just trying to help with a description. I actually prefer the slanted look for this ring.
