I was searching for a princess cut blue sapphire that was turned on its side (diamond shape) to match a necklace I have. This was the closest I could find. I wish it were white gold to match my necklace, but honestly nobody but me would know the difference. It's a pretty ring--different and unique. I've had the ring for 1 month and I wear it all the time (yes even in the shower). It has not begun to tarnish or anything yet. Although I did notice when I take the ring off that the ring got misshaped from wearing it. I think it is because the ring is a bit big on me. This tends to happen a lot with my rings so it isn't a deal breaker for me
