I used this crystal alexandrite band as part of a custom look I created by stacking it with other sterling/crystal eternity bands to represent my 3 kids. It's very pretty. What's best is it's personalized and represents my family. I'm even considering getting 2 more (my birthstone and my husband's) to place around my wedding band. Of course this isn't jewelry you would wear every single day and be hard on. For the price, it's great, but I'm being careful and not using them while I clean or swim. Don't want to abuse the ring at only 11 bucks apiece. Item arrived quickly and was neatly packed.
